Italy national football team - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The first match of the Italian national football team was held in Milan, Italy on 15 May 1910, against France (a 6–2 victory for Azzurri). The Italian national football team is the national football team of Italy and is controlled by the Italian Football Federation (FIGC - Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio). They were the favourites to win and were arguably the best team in the competition, but inexplicably lost the semi-final 4–3 on penalties to Argentina after a 1–1 draw at the end of extra time; later, they defeated England 2–1 in the third place play-off, thus conceding only two goals in the whole tournament. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Italy_national_football_team   (596 words)
