Watch the highlights as Italy secure their World Cup play-off spot with a 3-0 victory over Israel, including a Mateo Retegui brace, but Gianluigi Donnarumma had to make two big saves.
The Azzurri guaranteed second place in the group behind runaway leaders Norway, thanks to the fourth win out of four under new coach Gennaro Gattuso.
Retegui made up for last week’s error against Estonia by converting a penalty, then robbed a defender to curl a pin-point strike into the far top corner.
Manchester City goalkeeper Donnarumma was called into action for two important reaction stops, but Gianluca Mancini completed the rout in stoppages with his first senior goal for the Nazionale.
