Coach Roberto Mancini's team entered the match with high spirits despite only having to host the weak team, Finland.
In the Italian defense, there are still familiar names like Bonucci, Chiellini, while in the attack there are young rising stars like Ciro Immobile, Bernardeschi and Kean. Despite having home advantage, the Azzurri played very leisurely and scored 2 goals against Finland thanks to Barella and Kean.

In another match, Spain had a narrow 2-1 victory over Norway. Ramos left an impression after successfully executing a Panenka-style penalty. It is worth mentioning that the Real Madrid center-back dared to do it when the score was 1-1.
In this match, Spain used many young stars, especially in the attack, so although they played an overwhelming attack, the effectiveness was still not achieved. Meanwhile, Norway persisted in defending and counter-attacking and almost succeeded in hoping to get 1 point.
Other teams such as Sweden, Switzerland and Greece have all defeated weaker teams such as Romania, Georgia and Liechtenstein, showing that the Euro 2020 qualifying round is still clearly divided and no team has caused any surprises.
Without Neymar, Brazil was unexpectedly held to a draw by "tiny" Panama
Without Neymar, Brazil were still rated much higher than Panama. But on a day when Coutinho, Firmino or Richarlison were unlucky, they were surprisingly held to a draw by Panama.
Brazil's attacking stars such as Coutinho, Firmino and Richarlison had a lot of trouble against Panama's crowded defense. It was not until the 32nd minute that joy came to coach Tite and his team. Starting from Casemiro's cross, Lucas Paqueta rushed in and finished with a difficult shot, 1-0 for Brazil. This was the midfielder's first goal in the Brazilian national team shirt.
However, Panama surprisingly equalized 4 minutes later. From a free kick by Eric Davies, captain Adolfo Machado rushed up and headed in a dangerous header, equalizing the score 1-1 for Panama.
Not accepting a draw with Panama, coach Tite made personnel adjustments with the appearance of Everton, Gabriel Jesus and Felipe Anderson. Selecao maintained the siege but in a bad day for the strikers, they could not find the second goal. In the end, Brazil had to accept a 1-1 draw with Panama.
Pogba finds his way to Real Madrid
Marca newspaper revealed that super agent Mino Raiola wants to bring the Man Utd midfielder to Bernabeu in the summer of 2019.
"The biggest obstacle for Raiola is that Man Utd will not easily let Paul Pogba leave in the near future. This midfielder does not have a contract termination clause - which expires in the summer of 2021. That means Real will have to pay more than $137 million - the record amount Man Utd had to pay Juventus to buy back Pogba in the summer of 2016," commented journalist Jose Felix Diaz.

Pogba recently spoke to Real when he said the above.Sky Sports: "Any player wants to wear the Real Madrid shirt. When they are led by coach Zinedine Zidane, it is an irresistible combination."
Pogba's statement is considered an invitation to Real. The royal club is looking for a replacement for Luka Modric, when the 2018 Ballon d'Or winner will be 34 years old at the beginning of next season. Modric's form has also gradually declined since breaking the reign of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in individual titles.
Real welcomes blockbuster Militao
Militao becomes coach Zinedine Zidane's first signing of his second reign at Real. The Brazilian midfielder will move to the Bernabeu at the end of this season, after Real and Porto agreed a transfer fee of 50 million euros.
With a 21-year-old player who has only had a year of experience playing in Europe, many fans doubted Militao's ability to succeed at Real. However, with what he has shown in Porto's shirt (5 months from the beginning of the season, receiving the title of best defender), Militao is expected to soon shine alongside his seniors Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane.
The arrival of Militao means that the central defense of Real Madrid will be redundant. According to AS, the club's management is planning to liquidate some unsuitable names such as: Jesus Vallejo, Nacho.
Messi returns to Barcelona
Messi has just returned to the Argentina national team after nearly 9 months of absence. However, La Pulga's return was not as expected, when he watched helplessly as his team lost to Venezuela 1-3. This was the second time in history that Argentina lost to this opponent and was the heaviest defeat.
Things got worse for Messi, when his effort to play the entire match caused the 32-year-old superstar to suffer a groin injury. With this injury, Messi cannot participate in the friendly match with Morocco next midweek and was forced to withdraw from the Argentina national team.
Shortly after Argentina's defeat at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid, Messi flew back to Catalonia to receive treatment for a groin injury. Barca fans are now worried that Messi's injury could cause him to miss the Champions League quarter-final against Manchester United in mid-April.
