Jorginho missed a penalty as Italy were held to a 0-0 draw by Switzerland in a World Cup qualifier on Sunday, a result that meant Roberto Mancini's side equalled the world record for international matches unbeaten in a row. Italy have now not lost for 36 consecutive matches, matching Brazil's record set between 1993 and 1996.

'It's not the penalty, it's other situations, we need to be more determined, more clinical, more precise. 'It was tougher in the second half, but we had the chances in the first half and the second, which means the team did play good football.'
