Mon Oct 14 21:21:06 UTC 2024: ## Udinese-born Vicario Ready for Italy Debut in Hometown
**Udine, Italy** – Goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario is set to make his debut for the Italian national team tonight in their Nations League match against Israel. The match will be extra special for Vicario, as it takes place in his hometown of Udine.
“It’s a different experience compared to previous ones, changing country,” Vicario said ahead of the match. “Another culture, a different kind of football. It’s a baggage of experience that is part of the path an athlete decides to undertake. Participating for the first year in a European competition is teaching me, the pace is high, there is intensity. I try things that I had not tried before and I put them in my career backpack.”
Vicario expressed his excitement about being named to the starting lineup. “I’m very happy, I just found out, and obviously it will be a double emotion since it’s being played in Udine where I grew up,” he stated.
The Udinese native has quickly become a key player in Luciano Spalletti’s Italy squad. His experience in the high-pressure environment of the Nations League is clearly contributing to his growth as a goalkeeper. Tonight’s match will be a chance for Vicario to showcase his skills to the Italian fans and make a statement on the international stage.
