The Italian National football team played their first international game in Milan against France on 15-May-1910 (losing 6-2).

They are called the 'Azzurri' because of the pale blue, azure jersey's they wear (azzurro in Italian, the plural being azzurri), the colour traditionally associated with the House of Savoy - the Italian royal dynasty from 1003 until 1946.
