Italy coach Roberto Mancini insists there's no reason for concern after defeat to Spain.
Italy lost 2-1 in Wednesday night's Nations League semifinal against Spain.
Ferran Torres hit a brace aided by Leonardo Bonucci's red card just before half-time, Lorenzo Pellegrini grabbed a late goal for Italy.
"Games are like this, sometimes incidents change them. The first half could easily have ended 1-1," Mancini told RAI Sport.
“Clearly, Spain keep the ball well, but it's disappointing to lose like this, down to 10. We made a mistake that we should not be making at this level.
“To be honest, I didn't see the second card, but that's not the point. Leo should not have got himself booked in either situation.
“Playing like this, scoring a goal and not conceding more when down to 10 men was a good performance."
