A debut with comeback for the 'Italy of Luciano Spalletti in this Euro 2024. In Dortmund – where our national team, in 2006, snatched the pass to the final from Germany – finished 2-1 againstAlbania. The Azzurri conquer 3 points and they fly on par with Spain, in group B.
Calafiori plays from the first minute, but he is a shock start for Spalletti's men: incorrect disengagement by Federico Dimarco and Bajrami takes advantage of it for the momentary 1 to 0. Then Italy shakes itself and dominates. At the 11th cross by Pellegrini from the left and Sticks, in the area, heads it home equalizer goal. The comeback is signed by the Sardinian Stretcher, with a pearl that smashes the door from outside the area in the 16th minute, with the complicity of a less than perfect Albanian defense. At the end of the first half it's still Italy, with the Frattesi pole and the good opportunity, on the right, for Scamacca. Albania can only be seen with an attempt by Asani, with a left foot, from outside the area.
The second half follows the lines of the first. Lots of Italy and yet another opportunity for Frattesi and Chiesa. In the final part of the match, there was always a lot of Italian management, with the Albanians however being very dangerous I think, caught out of the way, but promptly closed by Donnarumma.
In Dortmund it ends 2 to 1 and there are 3 golden points for Italy. Next Thursday, June 20th, in Gelsenkirchen it is luxury clash against the Spain, victorious today over Croatia: Spalletti and his team are ready to fight for first place and passage to the round of 16.
