Italy coach Roberto Mancini insists defeat to England can be positive.
Italy are next up against Malta in Euro qualifying.
I expect a difficult match, these matches are all difficult and if you can't unlock them a little bit of difficulty appears. In the end its three points, beyond the value of the team. We will change several players," said Mancini.
It's a team (Malta) that has changed a lot, at a tactical level they've evolved. They've improved a lot, they know how to defend well and they counter-attack well.
In Macedonia they were still 0-0 in the 60th minute. The right-back is very good, as is their left mezzala. But it will depend a lot on us.
We always have to win but I don't feel pressure at all. After so many games against England we could have done with a defeat.
September is a bit more difficult for us, but no, it doesn't fundamentally change anything."
