The ranking order of the team’s group is decided at San SiroItalia in League A of Nations League: the Azzurri receive the France with… more than two out of three results available. Let’s explain better. In fact, Luciano Spalletti’s men will only need to not lose the match against the French by more than one goal to secure first place. In the event that the match ended with the victory of Deschamps’ team with 1 goal difference (0-1, 1-2, 2-3, etc.), the goal difference would still prove Italy right, victorious by 1-3 in the first leg in Paris. The ranking says Italy 13, France 10: the Transalpines have no choice if they want to try to take the lead of the group.
