Roberto Mancini promised changes in personnel for Italy s clash with the Netherlands after watching his side slump to a 1-1 draw with Bosnia-Herzegovina in the Nations League.

Mancini s men had won their previous 11 consecutive games – an Azzurri record – but fell behind at Stadio Artemio Franchi when Roma striker Edin Dzeko gave the visitors a second-half lead.

Torino s Andrea Belotti started in attack ahead of Lazio s talismanic forward Ciro Immobile and Mancini may consider that position for one of his planned changes.

The draw doesn t change our plans, Mancini tol…
