Italy defender Cannavaro urges no panic after Brazil thumping

Italy defender Fabio Cannavaro insists the manner of their Confederations Cup elimination by Brazil last night should not cause panic.

The new Juventus signing said: "It hurts to be leaving because we came here to try some things and to give experience to some boys. But this should not make us lose sight of the main objective and that's the qualification for the next World Cup.

"Then in a year, back in South Africa, you will see the real Italy."
