Euro 24: Abodi calls on Gravina to 'take responsibility'

(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 4 - Sports Minister Andrea Abodi has said Italian football needs a reset and called on Italian Soccer Federation (FIGC) President Gabriele Gravina to "take responsibility" for the national team's poor showing at Euro 2024.
    "If someone fails, there must be someone who takes responsibility for the mistake," Abodi told daily newspaper Il Foglio.
    "The national team has been going through a systemic crisis for some time.
    "The fact that there are balances with the FIGC that penalize the promotion of talent and competitiveness is also a factor in this crisis".
    When asked about Azzurri boss Luciano Spalletti, Abodi bemoaned a lack of "harmony between coach and players" (ANSA).
