Lippi Backs Donadoni

(Goal.com) - "This group can still achieve big things, it's unthinkable that it won't work out with Donadoni."

World Cup winning coach Marcello Lippi's high opinion of Roberto Donadoni was already well known: he said so even when the new coach's position was in danger, let alone now after he achieved his first win as Italy manager.

On the team's return to winning ways on Saturday he said: "I predicted it, it was only a question of time.

"I'm happy for him and for the lads, it was unthinkable that we couldn't continue on the road we set out during the World Cup.

"In any case, Donadoni is an excellent person and the national team will keep on winning with the new coach."

Italy picked up just the one point from their first two games, but have kick-started their qualification campaign with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Ukraine.
