Raspadori and Nico Barella’s wonder goals in either half sink Hungary’s hopes as Roberto Mancini’s Italy move ahead in the UEFA Nations League. This feat is quite a relief for the Italians to get over the 2022 World Cup woes.
The men in blue had been quite active from the early minutes as they kept hurling attacks at the Hungarian defence which they were not able to get behind. However, their tireless efforts were rewarded when Raspadori, the hero from the encounter against England, opened the scoring for them in the 26th minute, giving Italy the required motivation.

Coming back from the break, Hungary was resilient with a renewed zest. However, their game lacked the flair that it had against Germany. Soon, Italy grew into the game and was able to take control. It was a shame that, just before that, Dimarco had extended the lead for the Azzurri. Barella threads the ball behind the defense for Cristante, who sends a low cross to the back post for Dimarco to sled into the roof of the net, scoring.

Italy kept hurling tireless attacks with renewed force. However, custodian Donnaruma pulled off a string of stellar saves to keep his side in the game. With him denying Callum Styles in the latter half, outstretching his reach was a notable one of them. His spectacular performance at the bar prevented Hungary from snatching away the bragging rights from Italy.
