Italy coach Antonio Conte was clearly agitated after their 1-0 friendly win over Albania.
Sampdoria striker Stefano Okaka struck the only goal of the game.
Conte said: "We won five of our six games and drew one. Some might sneer, but my lads want to play and to get into the Nazionale. We just have to keep working.
"I very much liked the effort of the lads, as in a day and a half we prepared against an Albania side that played its first choice team.
"We proved that if we want to, we can achieve anything. Nobody is going to help us, so we have to get it done ourselves."
