It's history! After two failed World Cup qualifiers in the 2018 and 2022 editions, Italy returns to qualify for the group stage of an international competition. Thanks to the 0-0 draw just obtained at the BayArena in Leverkusen against Ukraine, Luciano Spalletti's Azzurri enter as runners-up in the qualifying group for the Euro 2024 group stage.

With 14 points behind England (20) and on equal points with Ukraine, Italy gains access thanks to the direct clash with the Ukrainians, having won the first leg match 2-1 at the Meazza in Milan.
