England 2 : 1 Italy

SAFE HANDS ... debutant Jack Butland
Lamps’ curling 20-yard free-kick four minutes before the break also only just went over the bar and had Sirigu beaten all ends up.
Ruddy was called into action on 55 minutes, saving superbly after a smart turn and shot by Mattia Destro.
Then Italy sub Federico Peluso was played in on goal but delayed a fraction and shot into the side-netting when he should have scored.
It was time for more substitutions, with James Milner on for Young and Joleon Lescott replacing Jagielka.
Spurs’ Jake Livermore also replaced Lampard, who earned warm applause from appreciative supporters.
Italy escaped after a scramble on their own goal-line, with Lescott unable to force home a Milner cross.
