Finland coach Markku Kanerva admits they'll be going for victory against Italy tonight.

It is a top of the table clash for Group J - the only difference between them is Italy's 2-0 victory last October.

“I've tried to give the players a little time off and not too much intensive training today," said Kanerva.

“We have different tactical options against Italy, but we will probable play in a fairly defensive way tomorrow. Having said that, we are certainly not playing for a draw.

“Obviously, a draw with Italy would be a positive result, but if tomorrow we had the opportunity to get the win and then we drew, I would not be happy. We'll give it our all."
