Italy Women's Team Scare The Life Out Of Mascots During Passionate National Anthem

The Italians are renowned for belting out the famous 'Il Canto degli Italiani' anthem with incredible passion before sporting events.
In years gone by, we have witnessed some memorable renditions, including 'that' iconic version at the Rugby World Cup in 2011, where several players broke down in tears.
And ahead of their World Cup tie against Brazil on Tuesday afternoon, Italy's women's team gave another unbelievable rendition of the catchy anthem.
Just check out the reaction of the young mascots, who shrieked in fear as the likes of Manuela Giugliano and Valentina Giacinti screamed those iconic lyrics.
Twitter account Bleacher Report posted the following images and they are quite frankly, incredible:


Italy went on to record a 1-0 defeat to Brazil after six-time World Player of the Year Marta scored a record 17th World Cup finals goal.
Five of Italy's seven goals at the 2019 Women's World Cup have come in the second half, but they couldn't find that all important goal in the remaining minutes of the game.
Despite defeat however, Milena Bertolini's side topped Group C on goal difference and therefore progress to the last 16 of the competition.
