Germany stamps a brilliant comeback win to beat Italy 2-1 in their own backyard at San Siro.

Sandro Tonali opened the scoring with a powerful strike, only nine minutes into the game. The Azzuris kept the lead until the break, as Tim Kleindienst slotted home a header in the 49th minute, only after coming off the bench at half-time. Leon Goretzka netted the winner in the 76th minute, handing Germany a one-goal cushion ahead of the second leg next week.

Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann's pin-point substitutions worked well for Germany, whereas skipper Joshua Kimmich put up a masterful performance, providing assists for both goals.

Despite a decent performance in the first half, Luciano Spaletti's men failed to keep up with the tempo in the second half. 

Germany will welcome Italy at the Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund for the second-leg encounter on March 24th.

Nagelsmann's men are now ahead!

Daniele Maldini receives a booking for a tough challenge.

In: Daniele Maldini

Gross almost fell over Donnrumma while trying to anticipate the corner, but fouled him instead. Rudiger disagreed, but the decision stands.

Amiri, the new German starter, sailed the free-kick just inches over the crosspiece, following a set-piece right off the edge of the penalty area.

Donnarumma dived forward to send the ball past the line following a cut-in pass from Amiri.

Moise Kean found himself getting chased by two opposition defenders inside the box, but before they could catch up, Kean utilized the power and took a strike. However, Baumann made another great stop, putting the ball over the top.

Tonali sliced another full-paced long-range strike on target from a second ball, but this time, Baumann made a brilliant stop on his goalmouth, putting his body completely behind the ball.

Donnarumma has always been one of the best goalkeepers in case of outings. He again showed his prowess, coming off his line to drift away a cross by Kimmich from the left corner.

Italy somehow managed to keep the ball off the net, as Donnarumma put his fingertips on a long ball to drift it away. Italy's defence line stayed alert to block two other shots as well.

Barella and Politano again combined up in the right upfront, as Barella looked for Kean inside the box, but Rudiger headed the ball away, showcasing a brave piece of defending.

Goretzka had another attempt at goal with a first-touch strike from a distance, but Donnarumma dived forward to claim it well and good.

That was a sublime cross from Kimmich from the right flank, which Goretzka met in the middle of the box, but powered his header just over the crosspiece.

A fierce start from the Azzuris!

Barella curled in a beautiful grounded pass into the box which Politano received, breezed the ball past Baumann but Tah cleared away. However, Sandro Tonali anticipated it just outside of the 18-yard box and just rocketed it home with a right-footed half-volleyed strike!

One shot. One goal. Italy ahead!

Barella unleashed a beautiful Trivela pass for Raspadori, running upwards in a counter, but Baumann had the ball in his gloves.

Inside the first 15 seconds, Germany earned a corner. On the contrary, Italy initiated a quick counter-attack.

The match is underway at the iconic San Siro!

Match: Italy vs Germany

Tournament: UEFA Nations League 2025 Quarter-Finals 1st leg

Date: 21 March 2025

Time: 1:15 am IST

Venue: San Siro Stadium, Milan, Italy

Portugal advanced in emphatic style, overcoming an early setback to defeat Denmark 5-2 on the night and 5-3 on aggregate. Despite Cristiano Ronaldo’s shocking penalty miss in the 6th minute, Portugal found their breakthrough thanks to a bit of fortune — a Joachim Andersen own goal in the 38th minute gave them a narrow halftime lead.

Denmark came out fighting in the second half, with Rasmus Kristensen’s composed finish in the 56th minute briefly sparking hope for the Danes. But when the pressure mounted, Portugal’s stars rose to the occasion. Ronaldo redeemed himself with a 72nd-minute strike, only for Christian Eriksen to level things again just four minutes later in a dramatic exchange.

The turning point came through Francisco Trincão, whose clinical finishes in the 81st and 91st minutes shattered Danish resilience. Gonçalo Ramos sealed the victory in extra time with a composed goal in the 115th minute, ensuring Portugal’s place in the next round.

Ronaldo’s missed penalty could have defined the night — but instead, it was Portugal’s relentless attacking depth and resilience that stole the show.

It is really sad that one of these two teams will not be going to the semifinals after such an extraordinary performance.

If you are a neutral fan, it was an epic night for you. But if you're a fan or from Netherlands and Spain, it was a night of heartbreaks and wins.

Spain kept on getting the leads, but Netherlands continued to fight back and equalize. In the end, it was the penalties that differentiated the two teams.

Unai Simon was the hero for Spain as he made an important save in the sudden death.

It has been a really long night, and I hope you have enjoyed every bit of this coverage. This is Koushik Biswas, signing off. Good night, and take care.

The Netherlands are working hard to keep as many Spanish players pinned back as they can. Koeman has deployed two wingers, one central striker, and two players supporting Depay, aiming to create a five-versus-four advantage whenever feasible. It’s a bold, high-stakes strategy with big potential payoffs.

Mingueza is injured and has been replaced by Pedro Porro. 

The first half of extra time starts.

90 minutes could not separate the teams. 

It is 2-2 in the second leg and 4-4 on aggregate. 

We are heading to extra time. 

Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams's back-to-back shots were blocked by Dutch defenders. 

Nico Williams did not get the connection he was looking for and Verbruggen makes an easy save.

That was an important save from Simon.

Good buildup from Spain. Ruiz and Lamine played between them before Lamine went for a left footed shot from inside the box. 

It went straight to Verbruggen. 

Don't think that should be a pen at all. Memphis grabs Le Normand who's also grabbing him, suddenly Memphis takes a dive... That's a crazy call to me.

Chance for Kluivert, probably their best of the night. But, his shot was saved by Unai Simon. 

Chance for Dani Olmo to score, but his club teammate De Jong came sliding to make the interception. 

No changes from either team.

Spain head to the tunnel with a 1-0 lead over the Netherlands via a penalty scored by Oyarzabal

1 minute added as injury time. 

Cucurella wins the battle with Frimpong, who received a cross from Depay. 

The defensive win led Spanish fans to chant the name of Cucurella. You already know his song!

In the last two occasions, the defender was able to go front and provide through balls for Lamine Yamal and Oyarzabal. Spain are looking for their second for the end of the first half. 

Depay gets a verbal warning from the referee for a foul on Le Normand. But, no cards so far. 

Unai Simon makes his first save of the night as Geertruida makes an effort from outside the box. It went straight to the Spainsh goalkeeper. 

In the last few minutes, the Netherlands made three entries to the final third. 

This time, they won their first corner as Gakpo's shot was deflected away by Cucurella.

Just like Euro 2024, Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal have been phenomenal on the flanks for Spain. 

In the middle Fabian Ruiz, Dani Olmo and Oyarzabal have been constant threat as well. 

Another solid save from Verbruggen. 

Oyarzabal found Nico on the right, and Verbruggen saved Nico's shot.

However, Oyarzabal was offside leading to the attack.

Kluivert goes for the goal from outside the box. He was hoping that the ball would come down but it kept on going up.

Spain have been controlling the game so far. 

Lamine Yamal, on the right, waited for a long time before ppooing up the ball for Fabian Ruiz on the left. 

Ruiz went for a volley, but Verbruggen was there to make the save. 

Reijnders has the first chance of the night for Netherlands. 

He went for a volley inside the box from a pass by Maatsen

Nico Williams has an open chance to score from the right. He found a great pass from Huijsen, who kept on running with the ball from the defensive area and then passed it to Nico. 

Verbruggen came to rescue the Netherlands. 

For a moment, it looked like Oyarzabal had his brace. 

But he was offside there. Just by a bit.

Lamine Yamal with the side of the boot pass for Oyarzabal to go one-on-one with Verbruggen.

Oyarzabal goes low, hard and to the left. He hits the back of the net with ease. 

Spain take the lead. 

Spain 0-1 Netherlands (3-2 on aggregate) 

Van Hecke tackled and brought down Oyarzabal inside the box. It is a penalty for the home side. 

Huijsen, who was born in the Netherlands, made his debut in the first leg and did excedelingly well. 

This is his first start for Spain. He has replaced the injured Casado.

Here we go!

All to play for a place in the semi-finals.

Not many people saw this coming—hardly anyone pegged the Dutch to come out on top before the match kicked off. However, Koeman’s men came so close to earning every bit of a well-deserved victory.

They started off a little wobbly, sure, but soon found their rhythm, moving the ball with confidence. Gakpo and Frimpong were electric out wide, constantly throwing the Spanish defense off balance, while the backline held strong—almost to the very end—until Merino slipped one through.

Jorrel Hato received a red card during the first-leg game, and will be suspended for the game night. Ian Maatsen has been called up for the Dutches. However, Jurrien Timber will also be sidelined due to illness.

Center-back Pau Cubarsi was forced off in the last stages of the first leg encounter, as he has withdrawn from the squad and will be unavailable for tonight. Rest of the squad will be available for selection.

The contest became nervier than they would have liked in the second half but, for the first time, Germany will feature in the Nations League final four. The two performances against Italy underlined just how far this side have come under Nagelsmann. They’ll have a magnificent opportunity to win silverware on home soil in June.

OH MY WORD!

Germany is running riot here!

Another masterclass interception by Kimmich in the middle of the park, who quickly passed it to Goretzka on the right, who chipped it into the box for Kleindienst who headed it into the net. Donnarumma had his hand on the ball as he sent it back into the box, but the referee signaled for a goal; indicating that the ball had crossed the line!

Germany stamps a brilliant comeback win to beat Italy 2-1 in their own backyard at San Siro.

Sandro Tonali opened the scoring with a powerful strike, only nine minutes into the game. The Azzuris kept the lead until the break, as Tim Kleindienst slotted home a header in the 49th minute, only after coming off the bench at half-time. Leon Goretzka netted the winner in the 76th minute, handing Germany a one-goal cushion ahead of the second leg next week.

Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann's pin-point substitutions worked well for Germany, whereas skipper Joshua Kimmich put up a masterful performance, providing assists for both goals.

Despite a decent performance in the first half, Luciano Spaletti's men failed to keep up with the tempo in the second half. 

Mateo Retegui, plus wing-backs Federico Dimarco and Andrea Cambiaso, while Riccardo Calafiori has now joined them on the sidelines.

 Kai Havertz, Benjamin Henrichs, Felix Nmecha, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Florian Wirtz are all sidelined by injury.
