Fifa has accepted UEFA’s request and has decided to cancel all pending warnings on the occasion of the qualifying playoffs for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. In practice, this means that all warnings that would have been canceled in the event of a new ‘yellow’ led to disqualifications in the second and decisive match.
The decision of Fifa will presumably make the Azzurri coach Roberto Mancini smile, given that Italy had ten players on warning, namely Barella, Bernardeschi, Chiellini, Chiesa (in any case stopped until the end of the season due to injury), Donnarumma, Insigne , Pellegrini, Pessina, Toloi and Tonali.
Italy will play their first game of the ‘playoffs’ that are worth a place at the World Cup in Qatar on March 24 in Palermo against North Macedonia. If successful, they will face the winner of Portugal-Turkey in the final on March 29, in Lisbon or Istanbul.
