Mancini expects more from Italy despite 3-0 win in Greece

Italy sit top of Group J as they seek a place at Euro 2020, but the Azzurri coach was not entirely satisfied with the win over Greece on Saturday

Roberto Mancini wanted Italy to push for a fourth goal in Saturday's 3-0 Euro 2020 qualification win over Greece, but he still believes his side are "ahead of schedule".

Italy produced a dominant showing in Athens, where a 10-minute, three-goal burst in the first half wrapped up a third victory from as many Group J matches.

Nicolo Barella, Lorenzo Insigne and Leonardo Bonucci were all on target, while the Azzurri also maintained their perfect defensive record.
