Italrugby, Simone Ferrari turns the page after France

Italrugby, Ferrari’s words

First official day of work on the field for the Italian Men’s National Team, which began the march towards the match against England – valid for the fourth day of the Guinness Six Nations 2025 – scheduled for Sunday, March 9 at 4 p.m. Italian time at Allianz Twickenham Stadium. The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sport Uno and free-to-air on Rai 2.

Morning divided between meetings and work in the gym, while in the afternoon the full group è moved to the field of CPO Giulio Onesti for the first collective training of the week.

“Since the start of the gathering, the focus è has been solely on the match against England. We are working humbly to show a level performance. Against France we lacked some aspects – began Simone Ferrari in today’s press meeting – and now we want to focus on ourselves to start again with confidence, good play and especially good defense after the doubts that emerged in the last game. Certainly Twickenham will be a difficult field: we know it well. England plays differently to France. They have a structured game and strong ball carriers: this suggests a very physical match for the forward pack”.

“One of the aspects to be taken into consideration will be discipline. We definitely need to improve in defense and one-on-one tackling situations as well. The whole group is eager to raise its head again, regain focus and leave behind an unsatisfactory performance.”

“What we want to do is è stay humble and respect each and every opponent to the fullest by preparing each game with a lot of hard work. That English è a rough scrum, full of high-level players” stressed the blue pylon.
