AC Milan fullback Alessandro Florenzi was proud of his young Italy teammates after their draw with Germany.
The Azzurri drew 1-1 with a young XI on Saturday.
“You feel responsibility every time you pull on this shirt," assured Florenzi on RAI Sport.
“We had to send a signal that we were starting afresh and I think we did that. Everyone gave something more to honour this jersey.
“There were many young players compared to Wembley, some of them paid a price for the nerves of their debut, others behaved like a little veteran!
“We need to start again with Italy fuelled by the hunger of these young lads."
