0‑0 IN THE ROSSONERO DERBY BETWEEN ENGLAND AND ITALY
Internationals
On Saturday night in the Nations League, the spotlight was focused on the England v Italy game. Tonali and Florenzi on one side, Tomori on the other. Although they're teammates with the Rossoneri at club level, they're opponents on the international stage. The game ended goalless, despite many opportunities, as both sides picked up a point from matchday three; it finished 0-0 in Wolverhampton. Sandro played the full 93 minutes of the game and even came close to scoring in the first half, but picked up a caution in the second, meaning he will now serve a 1-match touchline ban. Fikayo, on the other hand, looked sharp and on alert throughout, as he was afforded an 88-minute stint by Gareth Southgate. He made his exit just moments after Florenzi was introduced. Calabria was unused on the bench. This draw means that the Azzurri climb to five points and now sit alone at the top of their group, leaving the English with some catching up to do.
There was another draw to be seen in Cardiff between Wales and Belgium. This one finished 1-1, thanks to second-half strikes from Tielemans and Johnson. Alexis Saelemaekers didn't feature in last night's match. The Red Devils will leave the game with a few regrets, as they now join Poland in second, three points behind The Netherlands who top Group 4. It was a carbon copy, as Montenegro v Bosnia and Herzegovina ended all square, 1-1. Marušić responded to Menalo's opener. Rade Krunić supported Edin Džeko in the closing stages, a position he is largely unfamiliar with. The Bosnians lead Group 3 (B League), with five points on the board.
