After Italy defeated Israel 5-4, Italian forward Keane Jr. was interviewed by Rai.

He said: "Believe that by the last minute, this is the charm of football. We did it tonight and brought back the victory."

"I feel that I have a good partner with Retje. We are gradually developing a tacit understanding and have a sense of cooperation with each other. Winning is important, and everything is possible in the sport."

"It feels strange to have no fans present, but we send a positive signal to the fans who are watching us at home. We believe that we can advance to the World Cup, we are a good team, and we have a great head coach, and we can do a good job."
