First a shocking start with a goal scored after 14 seconds, then a sumptuous match with three goals (especially the one by Di Marco) that annihilated Dechamps' France.
A clear and deserved victory: the Azzurri almost never suffered the French game but only some gusts of the transalpine champions. That of Italy is a real feat if you think about the values on the field at the beginning of the match.
Luciano Spalletti's Italy was reborn at the Parc des Princes against France and overcame the French after 16 years.
After the lightning goal, the reaction was immediate with Frattesi hitting the crossbar and Dimarco's masterpiece equaliser after half an hour made the French understand that Italy was very much alive.
In the second half, Frattesi and Raspadori, who came on in place of Pellegrini at the start of the second half, closed the game.
