Italy continues to resist the pressure it is receiving from Slovakia. The home team missed a very clear chance from inside the area, but it went over the goal and they finally got a corner kick as it rebounded off an Italian player.

Six more minutes are added, with all the moments that a little bit of time was lost, the referee decides to add six more minutes of compensation, which will make for a heart-stopping end to the game for both teams who want to take the win in this great match.

Two minutes left in the second half and Italy are qualifying with this second match won and the home team is out of the competition as they have no chance of getting points to qualify for this tournament and must look to score at the last minute.

There are only six minutes left in the match and the changes made by the Italian national team are working, although Slovakia is improving much more and is the one who is looking for the equalizer more, it is very important because with this result they are eliminated from the tournament.

We are already 10 minutes away from the end of the game and the match is still in favor of Slovakia as they make very good plays to tie the game, but they do not manage to finish because the Italian defense does not want to be beaten and take the three points.

The home team continues to insist and give their best, but the defense does not allow them to continue to have that opportunity to score, a moment ago they had a corner kick, but it did not materialize and the visitors want to look for a counterattack to prevent them from scoring the equalizing goal.

Slovakia had a very clear one but they did not finish it, the home team is giving everything to get the tie and even come back, it is very important to mention that the home team looks better since the second half.

There are only 20 minutes left in the game and the Slovakians keep trying because they have more of the ball, but the Italians take advantage of the home team's mistakes and make good plays but do not score goals.

We have reached the 62nd minute and Italy has to make a clean substitution after Tommaso Baldanzi has been treated for a serious foul in the tackling area and has to retire, which is very sad as the player has played very well.

Slovakia looks more superior at the moment, they have more of the ball, they play from their area and just a moment ago they missed a key moment that they didn't finish off well and get the equalizer, let's hope the game continues to be as intense and with more dynamism.

The home team already made some dangerous calls in the red zone of the Italian team, they are taking advantage of their mistakes and are looking for a chance to score the equalizer and tie the game little by little, having the opportunity several times.

Slovakia are the ones who have the possession in these first moments of the game, both teams want to score but the home team takes advantage of the visiting team's mistakes and has good ball movement at the moment.

The ball is rolling again for the next 45 minutes of the Slovakia vs. Italy game and we hope to have a better match and that the goals keep falling and that one of these teams takes this great game and will give it all in this second half.

The first half of the match is over and both teams are giving their all, but Italy scored an early goal and are still looking to score one more, but Slovakia are gradually getting more into the match and taking advantage of the visitors' mistakes.

Two more minutes are added to the game, the referee decides to give two more minutes of reinstatement after the actions that have happened and the time has been lost and we will have the best moments for these last minutes of the first half.

With only three minutes of regular time left in the first half of this match, both teams are giving their all, and the home team is slowly trying to generate more danger as they take advantage of several mistakes made by Italy in the midfield.

There are less than 10 minutes left in this game and both teams are trying and looking to have the ball in their favor, the Slovakians are taking advantage of the visiting team's mistakes and they are generating more plays and they are already more than halfway through the field, they could have a dangerous play at any moment.

The match is still very tight, both teams are very tough and are giving everything, these two teams want to look for the victory and must give everything in these almost last minutes of the match.

First 30 minutes of the game and the match is back and forth, both teams want to get the advantage or tie the game, the match is getting very rough at times, but these young players are giving a great show.

At the moment the home team has the ball and is starting to generate more, they just don't speak well and can't make the right moves, they should look for more consistency and with that they could score the tie goal, let's hope the game stays the same.

Slovakia wants to do some damage to Italy's team and they try to have the ball little by little, they start to generate, but the visiting team's defense does not allow them to do more, the match is also becoming a little rough.

Italy just missed a very clear danger play, they had a direct free kick from very close to the goal and they totally missed it as they sent it over the goal and the score remains 0-1 in favor of the visitors.

We have almost reached the first 15 minutes of the game and the home team looks a bit desperate, they do not transcend because they cannot get past the midfield and when they do, the defense does not allow them to do much.

First 10 minutes of the match and very quickly the visitors take the lead, Slovakia already had a dangerous one, but did not make progress and must try to do more to tie the match and give a scare to Italy.

In the 7th minute, Italy took advantage of a mistake by the home team and Cesare Casadei scored from inside the box with his left foot to give the Azzurri the momentary victory, the visitors look much better and will be looking for more.

Italy have in these first minutes the ball, they start to play from their zone and little by little they try to make a dangerous play, at the moment Slovakia also have little by little the ball and they want to give the first goal of authority.

This match between Slovakia vs Italy has already started and the ball is rolling on the field and the home team starts to take possession of the ball in the first moments of the match, both teams want the victory.
