The Italian national soccer team has been in touch with the Interior Ministry about security issues before its European Championship qualifier in Northern Ireland on Friday.
The contact comes after a dissident Irish Republican Army car-bomb blast in Londonderry on Tuesday.
Italy coach Cesare Prandelli says his team "is aware of what happened but we're staying calm, although we were a little calmer yesterday."
The bomb damaged a hotel, bank and other businesses but caused no injuries. It's the sixth such attack this year in the British territory.
