Italy's heavy defeat and the fact that they failed to secure a third consecutive World Championship will truly shake the Boot. The first and most important reaction occurred today when Gabriele Gravina resigned.
He is the current president of the Italian Football Federation and the top football figure in the Apennines. He signed his resignation and took responsibility for the increasingly poor results of the four-time world champion.
New elections will be held on June 22, when Italy will get Gravina's successor and with him begin a new era of football there.
The same path is expected to be taken by coach Gennaro Gattuso, who will definitely not remain at the helm of the national team, although it has not yet been officially confirmed. Negotiations are already underway for his successor, and Italians are hoping for the legendary Roberto Mancini.
In recent days, Gravina has been in Bosnia and Herzegovina. First, he held a meeting with the president of the Football Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Vico Zeljkoviฤ, and then watched the match at Bilino Polje with the leaders of our football's governing body and a delegation from Italy.
