As in the last edition, Italy took third place in the League of Nations. After Belgium in 2021, it was the Netherlands who lost in the match for third place on Sunday. The Italians won 3 goals to 2 on Dutch soil.
Beaten on the gong in the semi-finals once morest Spain, the Blue Team quickly took over. Too nonchalant, the Dutch conceded two goals in the first twenty minutes. Dimarco first took advantage of the passivity of the defense to crucify Bijlow (0-1, 7′) before Frattesi breaks (0-2, 20′) and scores his first goal with the Blues.
More dangerous in the second half, the Orange have logically returned to the game thanks to Mountain wine, who played with Dimarco before sending a fine shot into the small left net (1-2, 68′). A short-lived joy for the Dutch since the Italians will respond 4 short minutes later, via Church (1-3, 72′).
At the end of the game, Wijnaldum gave hope to his people by closing the gap (2-3, 89′) but Italy then backtracked to maintain their one-goal lead, win the match and finish 3rd in this third edition of the League of Nations.
