Italy vs hungary

Nicolò Barella is mobbed by his team-mates after opening the scoring Getty Images But the deadlock was broken in style when Leonardo Spinazzola rolled the ball across the edge of the area to Barella, whose shot was too powerful for Dibusz to keep out. Pellegrini almost set up Wilfried Gnonto for a second, but moments later scored himself, turning in Matteo Politano's pass. Politano struck the crossbar early in the second half, but when Italy did find the net for the third time, it was at the wrong end as Mancini diverted Attila Fiola's cross into his own goal. There was to be no further score as Italy claimed their first win of this UEFA Nations League campaign. As it happened: Italy 2-1 Hungary Paolo Menicucci, match reporter Italy deservedly earned the three points after a good performance against a strong Hungary side in Cesena. The Azzurri were brilliant at times, building very good attacking moves with quick passes between the forwards. Roberto Mancini encourages his players Getty Images Roberto Mancini's men seemed to be in complete control after the goals from Barella and Pellegrini, going close to a third when Politano hit the bar. Hungary, however, never gave up and forced Italy to hold on for the final whistle following the other Mancini's unfortunate own goal. Reaction Roberto Mancini, Italy coach: "We played a good game, especially in the first half. Their goal, however, created us some fear and pressure in a game we should have won by a bigger margin.

Italy vs Hungary UEFA Nations League Date: Tuesday, 7 June 2022 Kick-off at 19:45 UK/ 20:45 CET Venue: Stadio Dino Manuzzi. After winning the Euro Cup the Italians have been really humbled. They failed to secure qualification to the World Cup and they went ahead and lost the Finalissima against Argentina in embarrassing fashion. But fans hope that all of this will lead to a new beginning. Some of the legends are bidding goodbye to the national team and possibly this is the time for a rebuild. They have the luxury to play without pressure and this is something that manager Roberto Mancini will appreciate during this rebuilding phase. This time around in the Nations League they are placed in one of the toughest group along with the Germans and the English. And possibly every one of the four fixtures will be a virtual final. The Italians might not be expecting to make it to the final but they really could make life difficult for the other two heavyweights. Meanwhile the Hungarians have been having a dream run in international football lately. They were placed in the death group in the recently-concluded Euro Cup and though they were eliminated in the first round itself they really delivered some high quality performances against some top-rated teams. Once again they have the opportunity to do the same against three heavyweight teams and since they are huge underdogs, they really could take some chances. On top of that, they also have the opportunity to start against the Itali...

However, a defensive lapse allowed Giacomo Raspadori to roll the ball into an empty net and put Italy ahead. Federico Dimarco sealed victory for the European champions after the break when he tapped in Bryan Cristante's cross. The result means Italy finish top of Group A3 with 11 points from six games, one point above Hungary, with Germany third and relegated England in fourth. It also marks Italy's first win in Budapest since 1996 and while goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was called upon to make several excellent late saves, Roberto Mancini's side were worthy winners. Italy, who failed to qualify for the World Cup in Qatar, join Croatia and the Netherlands in next June's finals tournament, with Spain and Portugal set to meet in Braga on Tuesday for the last available spot. 9 Szalai • 1 Gulácsi • 2 Lang • 6 Orbán • 4 Szalai • 5 Fiola Booked at 87mins • 8 Nagy Substituted for Styles at 45' minutes • 13 Schäfer • 18 Kerkez Substituted for Gazdag at 57' minutes • 7 Négo Substituted for Bolla at 75' minutes • 10 Szoboszlai Substituted for Kleinheisler at 85' minutes • 9 Szalai Booked at 45mins Substituted for Ádám at 75' minutes Substitutes • 3 Mocsi • 11 Varga • 12 Dibusz • 14 Bolla • 15 Kleinheisler • 16 Gazdag • 17 Styles • 19 Ádám • 20 Baráth • 21 Botka • 22 Szappanos • 23 Vécsei
