Mancini still confident of WC chances; Southgate hails Kane

Italy coach Roberto Mancini was upbeat about his side’s chances of playing at the 2022 World Cup despite the European champions missing out on an automatic qualification spot on Monday.
Four months on from their Euro 2020 success, Italy’s 0-0 draw in Northern Ireland meant Switzerland finished top of World Cup qualifying Group C following their 4-0 win over Bulgaria in Lucerne, condemning Mancini’s men to the playoffs.
It is the second successive World Cup qualification campaign that Italy have only made the playoffs, with three teams from the 12 involved this time around progressing to Qatar.
The Azzurri failed to qualify for a World Cup finals tournament for the first time since 1958 four years ago after defeat by Sweden in the playoffs over two legs.
“I am very confident for the playoffs,” Mancini told RAI Sport. “Maybe we will even win the World Cup finals.
“We can’t do anything about it now, we have these (playoff) games in March and will try to give our best.
“It’s a pity, because we should have sealed the group long before it came to this. We just need to rediscover what we were all about up until today.”
Switzerland’s four-goal winning margin meant Italy would have had to win by three goals in Belfast, but the injury-hit visitors offered little in attack all match, with Northern Ireland having the best chances to claim victory.
“We knew that it was difficult coming here. We gave our all and were unable to score,” Italy forward Domenico Berardi said.
“They put all their defenders behind the ball and it was difficult to break them down.
“It is disappointing we didn’t already seal the group earlier. We have to roll our sleeves up, prepare for March and book our spot at the World Cup.”
Meanwhile, England coach Gareth Southgate has backed Harry Kane to overtake Wayne Rooney as the country’s all-time leading scorer after the Tottenham Hotspur striker netted four goals in Monday’s 10-0 demolition of San Marino in the World Cup qualifiers.
England booked their place in a seventh successive World Cup finals with their win over San Marino as Kane took his international tally to 48 goals and moved joint-third on the all-time list with Gary Lineker.
The 28-year-old, who scored a hat-trick against Albania last week, is five goals behind record scorer Rooney.
“I think that will definitely be one of his goals,” Southgate told reporters on Monday.
“And the remarkable thing is we haven’t given him the opportunities of nights like tonight (against lower-ranked teams) too often... He understood that, but he has huge personal ambitions as well as the team ones.
“He showed again the clinical nature and the mentality he has got. It is almost not ‘if’ he is going to break the record but ‘when’. And what he might do with it once he is beyond that point.”
Kane took his calendar-year haul for England to a new record of 16, became the first England player to score back-to-back hat-tricks since Tommy Taylor in 1957 and the first to score four in a match since Ian Wright against San Marino in 1993.
