The reality of Italian football is such that the younger generation does not remember the last time Italy played in the World Cup, not to mention the triumph in the 2006 tournament.

Former Italian national team and AC Milan defender Alessandro Nesta revealed that his son does not believe in his father's triumph in the World Cup.

A. Nesta said: "My son is nearly 18 years old and he has never seen Italy play in the World Cup."

He even finds it hard to believe when I tell him that we were once world champions. He says to me: really?"
