Prandelli tells Balotelli to accept defeat

Mario Balotelli should accept Italy were beaten by a better side in last night’s Euro 2012 final according to the striker’s coach Cesare Prandelli.

Although, Balotelli returned to collect his medal in the Olympic Stadium following the Azzurri’s 4-0 hammering by Spain, the 21-year-old was clearly upset at how the evening had unfolded.
