Italy rallied past France 3-1 as Pio Esposito scored twice
What's new: Italy moved top of Nations League Group A1 on head-to-head, while France lost for the first time under Zinedine Zidane.
Italy came from behind to beat France 3-1 at San Siro in the Nations League, with Pio Esposito scoring twice as the hosts climbed to the top of Group A1. France led after 10 minutes when Michael Olise capitalized on a Gianluigi Donnarumma mistake, but Esposito equalized before halftime and Davide Frattesi put Italy ahead soon after the break. Esposito added a late penalty after Sebastiano Esposito had earlier missed from the spot. The win left Italy on 10 points, level with France but ahead on head-to-head record. France, missing Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele through injury, hit the woodwork twice in an open match played in heavy rain in Milan.
