Alessandro Nesta has pulled out of Italy’s World Cup qualifier with Norway for unknown family reasons.

The Milan defender left the Azzurri’s Coverciano training base today, with the Italian Football Federation claiming his departure was due to "unforeseen and serious family reasons".

Boss Marcello Lippi has decided to not name any replacement for the stopper at this stage.

Nesta’s unavailability suggests that Lippi will field Inter centre-back Marco Materazzi alongside captain Fabio Cannavaro.

The former Lazio symbol becomes the second player in two days to leave the squad after Alberto Gilardino was ruled out with injury.

He was replaced by Udinese’s Vincenzo Iaquinta but he is unlikely to start the match in Oslo.

Whispers claims that Lippi will field Antonio Cassano of Roma and Inter ace Christian Vieri in attack.

Oh yea ? I can't imagine he would invent 'serious family reasons' to get his rest, normal procedure is to (ahem) pick up a minor injury............

Hmmm.. I don't come to the Players's section that much ... So may not be aware of this fact but does NESTA have a baby ??? I thought only SHEVA and COSTACURTA are the ones who became father recently ....

It hasn't been confirmed but it's possible that Nesta's girlfriend, Gabriela is a few months pregnant.

Yeah i hope nothing is seriously wrong or wrong at all for that reason, Materazzi steping in i dno would prefered someone elsehe just tends to have brain explosions at times but a win here would put us in pole position to make the Finals in Germany.

Hope Iaquinta performs good if he is given a shot

I don't trust Materazzi's skills or temper. Yesterday it was reported that Nesta might return to the team, depending on how his personal situation had evolved. :(

Have heard about Nesta leaving the NT for family reasons, but the news about G being pregnant is new. The source for/to that news?

Has he come back to the NT?

It was in Controcampo but I'm not sure it was ever officially confirmed. He did not return to the team as far as I know.

It's a draw! 0-0! Not so many goalchances either...Norway played much better than italy in the first half, and they played pretty equal in the second half. Not a very fun game, without goals...
