Italy qualifies for Euro 2024. Luciano Spalletti's blues suffered quite a bit against Ukraine at Leverkusen's 'Bay Arena', but managed to get what they wanted, a 0-0 draw, which secured them further qualification with 14 points, yes as much as the Ukrainians, but with the advantage of direct confrontations.

Rebrov's Ukrainians were doomed to win and put in a fine 90 minutes in Germany, deserving far more than a goalless draw, but Donnarumma's fine form prevented them from scoring the goal that would have taken them to Germany. . Donnarumma and Chiesa were the only ones in blue who were the best on the field.

In extra time, there was also a claim for a penalty by Ukraine, with Acerbi interfering with Mudryk inside the area, but Spanish referee Manzano ordered the game to continue, as the episode is expected to cause quite a bit of debate.

I close by celebrating Spalletti's Italy, which after failing to participate in the World Cup a year ago, this time secured a ticket to Germany 2024, where they will go as defending champions.

In the next challenge of the group, England was held to a 1-1 draw in Skopje against North Macedonia, as Albanian Enis Bardhi scored for the latter, while Harry Kane restored the balance for Southgate's team.
