Inter Milan stars Nicolo Barella and Federico Dimarco put on a show last night as Italy strolled to another FIFA World Cup qualifying win. 

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri duo excelled at the Bluenergy Stadium, inspiring the Azzurri to a crucial victory.

Italy swept Israel aside in their latest World Cup qualifier to stay within touching distance of Group I leaders Norway.

Furthermore, new manager Gennaro Gattuso maintained his perfect record since replacing Luciano Spalletti at the helm.

Despite failing to score or assist, Nicolo Barella delivered a standout performance in the middle of the park.

Indeed, the diminutive star ran his socks off, helping his side win the midfield battle with trademark runs and exceptional vision.

Meanwhile, Federico Dimarco registered a late assist, setting up Gianluca Mancini for Italy’s third deep into second-half stoppages.

Finally, Francesco Pio Esposito did well off the bench, though he wasted a sitter.

Unfortunately, the 20-year-old couldn’t score in back-to-back internationals.
