Rome, Sep 24 (Ians) England dropped into the League B of UEFA Nations League after a 1-0 away defeat to Italy while Germany were stunned by Hungary with a 1-0 setback on home soil.
England sat bottom with two points in Group 3 of League A before Friday’s game, while Italy ranked third with five points. The two finalists of Euro 2020 played out a goalless tie in the first leg.
Italy entered San Siro without injured Marco Verratti and Sandro Tonali, as Jorginho pulled the string in the midfield and Giacomo Raspadori partnered with West Ham man Gianluca Scamacca up front. Harry Kane spearheaded England’s three-forward line flanked by Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden, reports Xinhua.
It was a tedious first half as both sides failed to create too many opportunities, and the most promising chance emerged in the fourth minute when Scamacca saw his header hit the woodwork.

Rome, Sep 12 (Ians) Juventus came back from 2-0 down to settle for a 2-2 draw against Salernitana in a topsy-turvy Serie A game with four red cards, in which Arkadiusz Milik saw his last-gasp winner wiped out.
Juve were coming off a 2-1 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday, and entered the Allianz Stadium on Sunday evening without Manuel Locatelli, Adrien Rabiot, Angel Di Maria, Paul Pogba, Wojciech Szczesny and Federico Chiesa.
The away side took a shock lead in the 18th minute when Pasquale Mazzocchi’s mazy run created a chance for Antonio Candreva to bundle over the line.
Juve’s Dusan Vlahovic had the ball into the net in the 39th minute, but the Serbian was flagged offside in the build-up.
Salernitana increased their lead before the break as Krzysztof Piatek struck Gleison Bremer’s hand in the box, and the Pole stepped up to convert the resultant penalty.

England’s hopes of capturing its first major soccer championship since the 1966 World Cup were crushed on Sunday as Italy defeated them in the UEFA Euro 2020 finals, which went to a penalty shootout for only the second time in the history of the tournament.
The match opened with the sold-out Wembley Stadium roaring as English midfielder Luke Shaw scored just two minutes into the match, the earliest goal ever scored in the finals of the Euros.

The score would stay there through extra time, leading to a penalty shootout that ended 3-2 in favor of Italy. Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma secured the victory for Italy by deflecting the final penalty shot from England’s substitute midfielder Bukayo Saka.

Rome, March 3 (Ians) Cristiano Ronaldo marked his 600th league game with a low-strike as Juventus put on a second-half show to dominate Spezia 3-0 in Serie A.
