(Reuters) - Italy must keep looking for new attacking talent as they continue to struggle to perform at a consistent level, coach Roberto Mancini said on Thursday after his team's 2-1 defeat by Spain in the Nations League semi-finals. Italy held off a superior Spain side for most of the match in Enschede, but struggled to create many chances and lost to a late goal by substitute Joselu. "We already began to freshen things up and will continue to do so," Mancini told reporters. Right now we have good midfielders and defenders, but we are lacking great forwards, I don't know why." "We set things up differently, and we did things well in the first half when we managed to cut Spain's passing lines," he said.
