In the early morning of June 10, in the fourth round of the European Group I group stage in the World Cup qualifiers, Italy met the challenge of Moldova. In the first and second half, the Italian team each scored a goal and finally won 2-0, ushering in their first victory in this World Cup qualifier.

Italy ranks 9th in the world, while Moldova is 154th. There is a big gap in strength between the two sides. However, Italy was a little absent-minded in the game and was in poor condition. In the 9th minute, Moldova scored a header, but the goal was blown up due to offside, and Italy escaped.

The 40th minute. The Italian team, which continued to attack, finally scored. Laspadori kept kicking in the penalty area and volleyed directly, and the Italian team led 1-0. In the second half, the Italian team continued to attack because the 1-0 advantage was really unsafe. In the 50th minute, the teammate made a cross from the right, and Flatesi shot and shot a shot. However, Cambiaso shot from the back point from the side and scored the ball 2-0! In the end, the Italian team won the first victory with this victory. In Group H, the Italian team, which only played 2 games, is temporarily ranked third, behind the Norwegian team (4 games and 4 wins) at the top 9 points.

This game is a farewell battle for Italian coach Spaletti. Since coaching the Blues in September 2023, Spaletti's ability has been controversial, and he has failed to bring the Italian team to the heights it deserves. In the last game, Italy lost 0-3 to Norway, and the Football Association then decided to let Spaletti say goodbye.

No surprise, the 73-year-old Ranieri will become the new coach of the Italian team. Meanwhile, Ranieri will not resign as a consultant to the club Rome. In the future, he will hold two positions.
