""Last night, after the match, I cried. I cried with disappointment at not being able to take Italy to where it deserves to be. I cried because of the immense sadness I'm feeling together with the entire Azzurri squad, of which I am proud to be captain, and which, I know, at this moment, you, too, are feeling, supporters of our national team.""
""Now words don't mean much, it's true. But there's one thing I feel strongly inside and want to share with you. After such a great disappointment, we must find the courage to turn the page and look forward together.""

Gianluigi Donnarumma expressed deep disappointment and urged supporters to unite in the face of this setback, reflecting on the sadness felt by the entire team.
