The clash of the Euro qualifiers, between England and Italy, turned this Tuesday to the advantage of the Three Lions (3-1).
As was already the case in the first leg, England gained the upper hand over Italy, its most serious rival in the group in the Euro qualifiers. The Three Lions won 2-1 while trailing.
Kane double scorer
Indeed, it was the Azzurri who were the first to strike in this match. Scamacca gave the visitors the lead in the 15the minute by taking over a serve from Di Lorenzo. The Spalletti gang got off to a flying start but they were not able to maintain this advantage for very long to be able to believe in an exploit.
From the 32e minute, parity has been restored. And who else but Harry Kane to get the Three Lions back on track. The Bayern center forward equalized from a penalty. A first goal, then a second from him in the 78the. This time, it was in the game that he hit the mark with a cross shot which left Gianluigi Donnarumma no chance.
Italy can tremble
Between Kane’s two goals, it was Marcus Rashford who scored for the English. Discreet with his MU club at the start of the season, the talented attacker regained all his brilliance by brilliantly concluding an express counterattack from his team. Served by Jude Bellingham, he pierced the Italian axis and then unleashed an unstoppable shot from the right.
In the end, England logically won 3-1 and this success ensures their presence at the next Euro. As for Italy, the reigning European champion, it will tremble until the end. By losing this Tuesday, it also finds itself third in its group, with three points less (one match less too) than Ukraine (2e).
