Roberto Mancini secured his first win since returning as Italy's manager with a convincing 4-1 victory over Turkiye in the UEFA Nations League. Alessandro Bastoni opened the scoring early, followed by goals from Davide Frattesi and Michael Kayode, marking the first time Italy scored three goals in the opening half-hour of a competitive match in five years. Pio Esposito sealed the win after Turkiye had pulled one back. The match also saw the Esposito brothers, Pio and Sebastiano, start together for Italy, a rare occurrence not seen since 1915.
