Armenia 1-3 Italy: Azzurri ride their luck to see off 10-man hosts
Italy were way short of their best but got the job done thanks to two late goals as they won 3-1 in Euro 2020 qualifying away to Armenia.
Unbeaten Italy took another step towards the Euro 2020 finals with a 3-1 win in Armenia.
An Andrea Belotti brace and a solitary effort from substitute Lorenzo Pellegrini settled a spicy contest in Yerevan against hosts who played the full second half with 10 men.
Armenia could count themselves unlucky, losing their early goal-scorer Aleksandre Karapetyan to a controversial red card just before the break.
They matched Italy for long stretches in the second half, but two goals in three minutes scuppered their hopes of reward.
