Headlines in La ‌Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport, the country’s two main sports newspapers, said “We’re all staying at home”, in reference to another summer without a World Cup.

Fans in Rome were left stunned after Italy suffered a 4-1 penalty shootout loss to Bosnia on Tuesday following a 1-1 draw, their third playoff defeat in a row after they lost to Sweden and North Macedonia.

Italy went ‌down to 10 men in the 42nd minute as Alessandro Bastoni was punished for a late last-man tackle, a key turning point in the match, with Italy leading at the time.

“Everything went badly from the start of the match. The team wasn’t good, players out of form ⁠coming in and playing [anyway] … it makes no sense. Honestly, I’m shocked,” ⁠Davide Caldaretta, who watched the game at a pub in Rome, told the Reuters news agency.

Melanie Cardillo told Reuters that she was “really upset ‌and ‌disappointed”.

She added, “Even when you’re let down, you always hold out hope. And this is the third time in a row.”
