England beats Italy to clinch spot in 2024 European Championship
Classy England beat Italy 3-1 at Wembley to become the latest country to book a berth at next year’s European Championship after Tuesday’s round of qualifiers but Hungary’s hopes were held up by a draw away to Lithuania.
Ukraine moved into second spot as they beat Malta 3-1 away after Paul Mbong had put the hosts ahead in the 12th minute. An own goal and then a penalty had Ukraine ahead by halftime and they added a third near the end from Mykhailo Mudryk. Lithuania, who had won only one game in Group G, led at the break with goals from Fedor Cernych and Pijus Sirvys but Hungary fought back through captain Dominik Szoboszlai’s 67th minute penalty and a Barnabas Varga header eight minutes from time.
The results left Kazakhstan with slim hopes of automatic qualification despite upsetting Finland 2-1 away in Tuesday’s early match as Bakhtiyar Zaynutdinov scored twice, the first from the spot in the 77th and then an 89th minute winner.
