Australia recorded their first victory in Pool A as a below-par Italy were beaten 3-0, failing to close the gap on leaders Brazil who also were beaten.
Italy Coach Berruto: "There’s nothing to analyze, we have only to apologize because we have played very far from the show that this public deserves. There’s no execution and now, with great humility we have to work hard to come back to our best".
Dragan Travica: "We’ve played very bad. Every time we tiry to do our best but nothing happens by chance and with this match we’ve learnt our mistakes".
Australia Coach Roberto Santilli: "I’ve never think before that I could defeat Italy 3-0: it’s a great result joined with young boys. Many of them are at their first international experience. Our biggest goal are the Olympic Games".
Thomas Edgar: "It’s always difficult to play against Italy and we’ve try to do our best and we’ve done it. What’s happens in comparison with the previous matches? We play with young boys who grow up at each match and that is clear".
