FT: North Macedonia 1-1 Italy. Dogged defending in added time gets the hosts through and they have a valuable point. They are good value for it too, having hung around and offered a near-constant threat despite Italy dominating the ball. Both captains scored and now both sides have four points in Group C.

After Alioski heads a cross away, Scaldini stabs goalwards and Dimitrievski happily falls on the ball.

A Gnonto cross falls to Bardhi, who hacks clear.

Manev is apparently hurt, but this feels more like an effort at slowing Italy down.

Iljazovski is on for the hosts.

North Macedonia have a corner and win the first header, but the ball ends up out of play.

Tonali off and on comes Raspadori.

It has all been a touch manic since the equaliser, but lacking in quality.

Biraghi and Gnonto are thrown on for Dimarco and Zaccagni.

The free kick is two yards outside the box, left of centre, and Bardhi slams it beyond Donnarumma! We're back level; it was ideally positioned for Bardhi's right foot to curl into the far corner and he did just that.

A silly foul gives North Macedonia a dangerous free kick.

Serafimov on.

The Newcastle man is cautioned for a cynical shirt pull. It also gives North Macedonia a free kick 20 yards from goal, but Alioski hits it into the wall.

It's his international debut.

Right-back Askovski departs.

After being found excellently by Immobile, Zaniolo scoops a cross straight out of play.

They're like London busses. Dimarco catches Elezi on his backswing as he attempts to pass and joins Manev in the book.
