Why do the Italians wear a blue football shirt when they don't have blue in their national flag?

[Edit]
Blue is the colour of the Savoia, which was the ruling house of Italy from 1861 until 1946. Until then, the country's flag always had the Savoy coat of arms on it.

It is only since the Italian Republic was established, post-war, that the Tricolor has been the national flag.
