Description
67'
Great tackle! Emerson with a superb sliding tackle to deny Masouras a shooting opportunity after he broke into the penalty area and appeared to get the better of the Italy left-back. He had to time that to perfection or Greece would've been awarded a penalty.
64'
Greece have defended much better during this second half, but they've offered nothing in attack and it's almost been a training exercise for the Italian defence and keeper.

39'
There's not long remaining on the clock now before the half-time whistle, can Greece pull a goal back before the break? Or, will Italy manage to extend their lead even further.
37'
Italy will just aim to see the game out now, they are in no rush to push players forward, just keep the ball and make the hosts do all the running.

L. Bonucci has scored a goal for Italy! Assist by Emerson.
Emerson's delivery has been good from set pieces so far tonight and he put that on a plate for Bonucci, straight onto his head.
GOOOAAALLL! Italy have a third goal after just 33 minutes! It's 3-0! Bonucci now on the scoresheet for the visitors and it's far too easy for the centre-back. A corner is whipped into the box from the right by Emerson and Bonucci is allowed far too much time and space to meet the ball and power it into the bottom corner of the net.
32'
It'll be tough for Greece to come back from this scoreline now, they are yet to really test Sirigu in the Italy goal.
30'
L. Insigne has scored a goal for Italy! Assist by F. Chiesa.
Italy broke forward quickly on the counter-attack and Chiesa played the ball into the path of Insigne, who still had a couple of players to beat before he could fire a strike towards goal.
GOOOAAALLL! Italy double their lead, it's 2-0! Insigne with a superb strike to put Italy in total control of the game. The striker showed great skill to beat Samaris and he then drives into the box, curling the ball into the top corner of the net, giving Barkas no chance of stopping it.
27'
Good move! Italy get into an excellent attacking position, working space for a shot but the final pass lets them down and then Jorginho mistimes his pass, which is easily cut out by Greece who manage to clear the danger.

Belotti has been causing the Greece defenders a few problems already tonight, he is pressing the hosts high up the pitch and making numerous runs across the line, making him hard to mark.
23'
N. Barella has scored a goal for Italy! Assist by A. Belotti.
Belotti used his pace to beat his marker and then it looked like he was going to go for goal himself, but it was a tight angle for a shot, so opted to pass to Barella who was in a much better position.
GOOOAAALLL! Italy take the lead, it's 1-0! Belotti with an excellent run down the left wing, he gets into the box and then squares across goal to Barella who was waiting at the far post and he just slotted into the back of the net.

A. Samaris gets yellow.
Samaris is shown the first yellow card of the game after his late challenge from behind on Barella.

15'
Greece have everyone back behind the ball at the moment, trying to soak up the Italy pressure and keep their opponents out of the final third. So far it has worked.

Italy win the first corner of the game, with Emerson set to whip the ball into the penalty area... Chiellini manages to get his head to it, but his header is weak and straight at Barkas who comfortably gathers.
