Israel vs Italy match review, 1:45 a.m. September 9: Boost from “goal storm”

Comments on the match between Israel and Italy, 1:45 a.m. on September 9: The boost from the

Israel vs Italy form

After missing out on the last two World Cups, Italian football is desperate to return to the arena of glory. But expectations quickly turned to disappointment and anxiety right after the starting line.

In the opening match, Gli Azzurri suffered a crushing 0-3 defeat in their trip to Norway. The heavy defeat at the hands of their direct competitors left the haunting pain lingering in the minds of the Italian football people.

After an unconvincing 2-0 win over Moldova, a change was quickly made. Coach Luciano Spalletti was forced to leave to give the hot seat to his colleague Gennaro Gattuso, who was expected with his strong personality to ignite the fire of determination to win for his students.

The change in management immediately paid off. In his first match in charge, Rino Gattuso made his mark by helping Italy to a resounding 5-0 victory over Estonia.

Completely crushing their weaker opponents was not a surprising result for the Azzurri. But the way Barella, Tonali, Retegui... fought and showed their fiery spirit was the mark that brought a positive signal.

Certainly, coach Gattuso will want his players to continue to recreate the exciting atmosphere in their away match against Israel. If they win all 3 points, Italy will surpass their opponents to climb to 2nd place in Group I.

In theory, Israel has the home advantage. However, for security reasons, coach Ran Ben Shimon's home matches are held at the neutral Nagyerdei Stadium in Debrecen, Hungary.

Therefore, Israel will not have any clear advantage in welcoming Italy. The home team will have to enter the match as a complete underdog and is not rated too highly for the ability to score points.

Israel’s current form is quite good. In their last 3 appearances, Solomon and his teammates have won all 3, defeating Estonia (3-1) and Moldova (4-0) both away from home. In between those two matches was a 1-0 defeat of Slovakia in a FIFA Days friendly in June.

Therefore, it would be a mistake to underestimate the home team in the next 90 minutes. Although in all 4 recent encounters with Italy, Israel had to leave the field empty-handed. In particular, the most recent meeting between the two sides took place in October last year within the framework of the UEFA Nations League, coach Ran Ben Shimon and his team were defeated 1-4 by the Azzurri.
