England had to take the draw at Wembley, after Italy scored a late goal to take a 1-1 draw which was probably a fair score in the end.
It had been 20 minutes into the match with no goals, but both England and Italy is playing good.
But after 27 minutes, Jamie Vardy scored for England and the crowd went wild. Jesse Lingard provided the assist, very clever. Although personally, I think Italy could do better as they had lots of chances.
Italy had over five shots and none on target and the Italy fans look like they think they’re the home country who could do better, even though their country are losing at the moment.
England take the lead in for the half time of the game and when the second half started, both team had good chances…but the goalkeeper and the defenders made sure they did their jobs well for their home country.
In the second half, there’s been a couple of subs that have come on and been making great progress for the home side so far and Italy looks like they’re getting upset and just fouling the England players.
To be honest, I thought England was gonna lose but they have been 1-0 up so far, up to the 85 minute when…goal!
Italy scored a penalty, by Lorenzo Insigne from the spot after Federico Chiesa been fouled in the box.
Game over and it’s a draw, England 1 Italy 1. It’s been a good game with lots of chances for both countries and they played well.
I wish them good luck with their next game.
