After Italy defeated Estonia 3-1, Retegui accepted an interview with Italian Sky.

About missing the penalty kick

"I want to look back at that penalty kick, and I was a little angry at the time. But the most important thing is that we won: we played very well in the first half and must continue to do so."

You have not forgotten it. Remember how to score

"For our forwards, scoring goals is very important. It can bring confidence and help the team. Scoring goals is our innate ability. Winning this game is very important."

Is the goal now the play-offs?

"We have to continue to work hard like we are now, listen to the coach's instructions, and keep our feet on the ground. Move forward with a low profile and play like we did in the first half. We created a lot of opportunities. We could have opened up the score early, and then the game would be completely different. But we have to stay calm."

The attempt of the two forwards worked well

"I think all of us can play well in the game. Playing together in the frontcourt, everyone can score. I feel sorry for Keane's situation, and I hope he can catch up with the next game, because we need him. Pio (Esposito) played very well. I think everyone can play together or individually. The most important thing is to get good results."
