The Italian Football FanCast is the podcast for fans of Calcio and the Italian National Team.

This week on the show, joining host Stefano Merco is Peter Galindo, as well as, Editor of Forza Italian Football, Dov Schiavone.

With the Azzurri getting a deserved 2-1 win over Mexico we take a look at the match with La Verde.

The Forza Italian Football team cast their eye over the highs and lows of the result, and suggest areas where Cesare Prandelli needs to improve.

Also looked at are some of the individual player performances, including that of Andrea Pirlo, who capped his his 100th appearance for the Azzurri with a sublime freekick.

Italy's next opponents are Japan and we assess the likely outcome of that match.

Elsewhere, the Italy U21 side have also been in action as the European Under 21 Championship has been taking taking place in Israel over the last couple of weeks, with the final against Spain played on Tuesday evening.

Despite the Azzurrini's defeat in that match we look at the future of Italian football and ask if we have anything to worry about with the future generation of Italian stars.
