Italy's bid to qualify for the World Cup for the third consecutive time is in jeopardy after an embarrassing goal contributed to their loss against Germany in the Nations League quarterfinals. Despite a comeback, Italy's failure to win means they enter a tougher five-team World Cup qualifying group instead of a four-team group. The only way for Italy to ensure direct qualification is by winning the group. Italy's coach, Luciano Spalletti, acknowledged the mistake and emphasized the need to avoid further errors in the upcoming matches.
