04/02 08:16 CDT Italy soccer president resigns after Azzurri miss third straight World Cup Italy soccer president resigns after Azzurri miss third straight World Cup By ANDREW DAMPF AP Sports Writer ROME (AP) --- Italy's soccer federation president resigned amid political pressure on Thursday, two days after the Azzurri failed to qualify for a third consecutive World Cup. Gabriele Gravina's decision will likely lead to the ouster of Italy coach Gennaro Gattuso, too. Italy Sports Minister Andrea Abodi called for a change in the country's soccer leadership after Gravina oversaw two sets of disappointing World Cup qualifiers. Italy's chances of reaching this year's tournament in North America ended after a penalty shootout loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina in a qualifying playoff on Tuesday. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer
