Italy won the victory over Bosnia in the UEFA Nations League match which was held on Thursday (19/11/2020) this morning. The team nicknamed Gli Azzuri came out as winners with a score of 2-0.

Even though he played at the Bosnian headquarters and was accompanied by an interim coach, Alberico Evani, Gli Azzurri remained undaunted. They even got their first goal in the 22nd minute through the action of Andrea Belotti.

It took Gli Azzurri until the 68th minute to get his second goal in the match. Sassuolo player, Domenico Berardi, managed to break into the Bosnian goal thanks to the help of Manuel Locatelli.

These results make Italy perched at the top of the League A Group 1 standings with a collection of 12 points. They have never lost in six matches and are one point ahead of the Netherlands.

In this match, Italy cannot play two veteran defenders, Leonardo Bonucci. The 33-year-old player was sent back to his club, Juventus, due to an injury before playing with Gli Azzurri.

Federico Bernardeschi is the only Bianconeri player left in the Italy squad. However, the former Fiorentina player only played in the second half to replace Domenico Berardi.

Thus, Italy played against Bosnia without a single Juventus player in its starting XI. It should be noted that this is not the first time the Bianconeri have not contributed a player to Gli Azzurri's starting XI.

According to records, Italy has fielded the starting XI without Juventus players four times. Two of them played in their last six matches.
