Cambiaghi, who found himself on the list of selector Luciano Spalletti, had to watch the match in Zenica from the stands, and he described the atmosphere and feeling of helplessness quite emotionally. "Sitting there, we told each other that being in the stands is even worse. You feel completely helpless in the midst of that chaos, unable to at least show your support in some way, as we could have if we were down there, on the bench," stated the Bologna forward. Despite the heavy blow and the failure in terms of results, Cambiaghi emphasizes that the atmosphere within the team was at a high level: "I can only say, and these are truly not just empty phrases, that we were a great group: healthy, united, and positive. We honestly believed we could succeed, we were maximally focused." When asked about the deeper reasons for the Azzurri's failure, Cambiaghi remained measured, emphasizing the shared responsibility of the entire team. "I don't have the ability to make such complex analyses. But, woe to anyone who tries to look for just one culprit: in situations like these, the word 'team' is worth more than anything else. We all fell short, from me who was in the stands, to selector Gattuso, to my teammates on the field," Cambiaghi was clear, and he ended by sending a message of encouragement for the future: "All that remains is for us to apologize to the fans and start over with much more sporting audacity. I can't wait for the chance to wear the blue jersey again, because there is nothing more beautiful than that."
