Germany v Italy live updates - latest Nations League score as Italy look to maintain top spot in the group

It's from a long way out, and they beat Germany's highline as Raspadori swings the free-kick. Cristante gets his head to it but it's over the bar.

Hofmann with a first-time cross into the box, but Donnarumma easily collects.

Hungary has scored against England.

Three mins since the goal, and Italy's response has been lacklustre (and that's putting it kindly). Germany easily knocking it around, before going on the attack. They win a corner that Rudiger gets his head on, but it spins wide.

Kimmich scores and gives the hosts the lead!

He receives the ball in the box from a cross delivered by Raum, takes a touch to control it, and slots it home.

Neuer with a double save!

Calabria with the cross to Raspadori, who shoots but Neuer makes a stretching save. Gnonto's follow-up is also saved by the keeper.

Sane with a dribble into the box. A one-two doesn't come off, but the ball lands back to him, and he takes a shot, but it's just wide.

Home-side with 70% of the ball in these opening mins.

Gundogan takes one from distance.

Kimmich swings in it, but Donnarumma's height is an advantage here, as he gets to it first.

Hofmann gets it to Werner who takes a shot, but Mancini gets back to make the block.

Here we go!!!!!

National anthems first, and then kick-off!

After being beaten by Argentina earlier this month at Wembley, this Italy side is a very different one than the team that beat England at the Euros last summer. In fact, only two players who started the final were a part of the starting XI last weekend for Italy, as youngsters like Davide Frattesi and Gianluca Scamacca look to get permanent spots on the national team.

All three of Germany’s Nations League matches have ended in 1-1 draws, and the Chelsea duo of Kai Havertz and Timo Werner especially struggling to get the ball into the back of the net.

The good news is that they’re coming up against an Italian side that are going through a major rebuild, and history is on their side, with Germany going unbeaten in their last five matches against Italy in all competitions.
