Italy continued their good start to the school year, winning against Israel. In the other matches, Norway, Wales and Turkey won.
It was no fluke. Against the French team, Italy had gradually gotten the better of Les Bleus to win 3-1. They did it again this Monday evening for their second group match, against Israel.
However, Luciano Spalletti had made many changes at kick-off. A system still in 3-5-2 but five new players at kick-off. In Budapest – neutral ground obliges – Italy won 2-1 against Israel. Already a scorer against the Blues, Davide Frattesi did it again (38th) before being imitated by the former Parisian Moïse Kean (62nd).
