equip for this game it's hard not to be impressed with this guy K who's naturally a Winger but an unusual one in that he prefers to take shots in the sort of position you'd expect from a number nine um a real winger come Striker who causes confusion and great distraction yeah hard to see past him he'll be looking to put on the show I'm certain of that oh that's nice yeah he's F him there massive Le just needed a better Conta that was a slick move and there were several options in the Box throughout to pick out manini Baston played out to the right kza muscular approach does pay off here well he had a really good run and goal there but the defense just weren't going to let him P turns back here probably the best option play down the flank there's the clearance ref's given a [Applause] throw dorenzo kza has it in a wide position All Is Over The Line Loreno [Applause] Co goes forward excellent challenge there uncompromising gently done that's been cut out well [Applause] played K in towards the middle that right side seems become a very good outlet for them now look it's the WID that's providing this momentum and and they look set to further exploit well the defense have two choices deal with the man or SC and the ball's come loose [Applause] here oh it's played into the area and he was alert to it and he's heed it away and they're quick to get it back dearco and it's Shino smoothly does it barela he's tried one oh that is rather Wayward yeah on another occasion all that went wrong may come right pressing intense and it's paid off DeMarco great defending strong and determined chance to break he is through here he's having a go it's off Target and by quite way well we were anticipating this they're very much set up for the Counterattack and I don't see it changing anytime soon Italy are sending quite a clear message here we're better than you and we're making sure you know it I wonder what you've seen Jim Over the early moments of the game well neither side has really grabbed the initiative I would say both must have come in with a view of of not making any early mistakes so we're seeing some conservatism here that was very [Applause] necessary Zak Zak toing header all denied brilliantly really must have felt he had the measure of the keeper then but how WR he was that ball chasing after it manini Italy must have been told to look for ways to try and construct some space down down the middle here and what is it J that they're actually achieving well it opens up the pitch SCA [Applause] and he's going to be ped back for that one manini lovely feet and it's shinho over to the other side cross from Kasa and back out it comes in towards the middle knocks it away Natco sends it forward dearco so we're still where we started right now played out towards the right wing K played into the box up to meet it [Applause] Zak and that's aimed into the middle cut it out played in with accuracy calmly anticipates some really good ball movement Sahari FCO shifted up field nicely intercepted zahavi was only too happy to help out in defense ah he's dealt with that very well Peter it's a a real show of discipline moved on forwards that's been intercepted well he is the type of character who Rises to this sort of Challenge and he will be back for more and here's sahav manini Delorenzo K up toino and it's played forward [Applause] well that was well positioned and and well pinched they can't hurt with their backs to go oh easy pickings there Sho Delorenzo forwards with intent now it's Kiza up for a [Applause] head it's come loose Play Out To the Left Flank nice control barela Andino it's come through and he's had a quick look inside defending of the desperate variety defend on the back foot he certainly caught him there it's a free kick [Applause] locks it out wide oh sweet feet dearco gets good distance on [Applause] it mov forward and quickly so gon Zak I wouldn't fancy playing up front in these circumstances to be honest there's absolutely no Supply oh that's a key [Applause] interception k a in towards the center blocks it away k place it in been there done that unfortunately you immediately want to have another go believe me on that block back out it comes skaka [Applause] just St Target [Applause] [Applause] chance could be danger here Israel can start a counter here he's been picked out Solomon Solomon that was no routine save the keeper really dug out his defense then a magnificent effort [Applause] that's an excellent [Applause] interception Baston barela oh can he get onto this he's got away tries the cross and that's been Le clear barela over to the left and he's there to get it [Applause] away that's good play and he's gone searching Cross Field now it's K that's very neat good run ultimately thed by an astute piece of Defending CR appreciates good football around there well that's well spotted K Italy disappointing in the end there they lack urgency that out to safety dorenzo so nil nil still but both sides have had their moments a he's had it taken off him and he's had it nicked away skaka out to the right K oh strongly challenged there the defense proved infallible then but that won't be the last they'll see of [Applause] him and it's played forward barel dearco D Lorenzo climbs up big he's well to get his head on that but couldn't score oh if you give him something to attack in the air he's most likely to to get there it's what he does best that's been drilled forward [Applause] and chinii with the clearance Israel looking to that's a foul of the line is that the referee has given a free kick just outside the box talking to I think yes it is [Applause] going for goal try to keep this alive pulls it back tries to get it clear just eases him off the ball now who's going to be first to this dorenzo and it's shinho it's an inviting looking ball that dorenzo looking for the runner very nicely done and we're already back on the way here Israel need to get the balance right to sort this out ambition must be complemented by just the right amount of caution and I think the more experienced players can oversee that skaka really needed to concentrate on protecting the ball then again he was being very closely Marshal that's well seen too barela dearco Delorenzo sends it Forward he cuts out the supply dearco and it's shinho Zak is onto it in a Flash can he get onto this Zak stood up well to him there [Applause] Harvey gets it clear it's Shino Zak plays it [Applause] in and there's his chance to lead the counter dor good spot he's seen the Run zahavi looking to get on the end of this barela that is good strength gets his pass away skaka he's shifting through the gears here hoisted up field by The Keeper forwards and with intent K nice sequence of passes this dorenzo Shino Solomon Shino Zak and it's Shino shifted up field now it's k skaka skaka good first touch and almost a second the technical control was Exquisite the plum of the was exasperating manini Delorenzo it's an inviting looking ball that sahav gently done much on it and that's the keepers Zak dearco Baston to Barella dearco played out to the right K Delorenzo floated up and over away from immed danger dearco plays it short now here's the delivery and out it comes [Applause] again there's a beautiful Simplicity about this contest willing running on one side doed defense on the other dor is enough flash manini chasing the game trailing by one to parella no surprise at all that this is the guy who's had such a positive impact well not only can a player of such high caliber show the imagination to set up a goal but he can also produce when the pressure's on to deliver a big moment this guy was born to create get a good fo in there Sahari it's a good run down the left hand side he's left his man gently done and that's been leave [Applause] clear they've played it short crosses it in Zak can get it clear defending of the desperate variety no again there's no way through Zak Bara proves too strong driven forward well the moans and groans from the stands now are very audible K that's clear cut it's a free Kick the ref's been lenient here I doubt he'll get too many more chances [Applause] steps in and that's the end of that he is just caressing the ball barela K has created one already that's surely a foul free kick [Applause] succumbs to the pressure he's a sharp little ball here barela gets away from his opponent and they've been given a corner and now they can spring out a defense chooses to go Cross Field dorenzo Italy finding their passes as crossed into the middle barela your impression so far Jim is not doing enough to get themselves back in the game they're not as threatening as their opposition it's got to change Shino that is way to stop him that's pretty clear it is a foul and he has sh him a yellow card players protesting furiously but there's little no sympathy from The Ref well I think the alternative was to stand there and do nothing while tried scored obviously he's not going over there that Peter is [Applause] he he's gone for goal oh the balls went loose here long Ball by the goalkeeper shinho it's a good spell of possession this dorenzo moved on forwards well played that has snuffed out the danger well time excellent interception kesa has a look up from the right hand side seeking out [Applause] options well they've got it back in a hurry that has been cut short forward and quickly so oh red nice interception forward and with intent ni interception his positioning was spot on dorenzo K manini skaka to parella Zak dearco a lovely feed is such a good mover C it out of home's way now then the balls come loose that's tidy barela whistle gone that's foul foul right on the edge of the box it could go either way here the referee's decided that he was fouled outside the box and it is just a free kick yeah well they were exposed and vulnerable and he knew he had to do something to prevent [Applause] he's gone for the shot and again well that wasn't too dissimilar to the previous attempt Italy really are in the ascendancy here and they know they have to register while that's the case climbs up big oh nearly but nearly it's [Applause] [Applause] nothing he's not going to any further than that Italy clearly have instructed to kill this off offense is the best form of defense and he's there to clear [Applause] it steaming on gooods yeah that does a foul referee's given a free kick well it was deliberate it was cynical and you have to understand the frustration I've been denied a clear opportunity but it had to be done no doubt as to who has the momentum here now the only doubt is how many is coming barel hops for safety Delorenzo played forward likely looking ball that Israel are certainly now looking like a sorry lot they haven't got a proper defense or attack for that matter and the assistant referee rightly gives him offside shinho dor great chance we simply have to ATT to the keeper here because that was a magnificent save dorenzo oh can he get onto this oh red nice interception and it's played forward that's put P to a promising move K pinches it off him and now the breakway fiddles it through zahavi hit into the middle just five minutes remaining now pressings intense and it's paid off into the [Applause] box gets his pass away oh he had to make that and he did make it that was very necessary Sol ball driven towards the far post oh not the worst attempt a little technical tweak should help the quality shifted up field and chinii is there to heave it away he's had a fair tumble under that challenge Israel have a free kick
