RABIOT DOUBLE SEALS TOP SPOT FOR FRANCE

Adrien Rabiot scored two headers as France beat Italy 3-1 at the San Siro to overtake the Azzurri and win Nations League Group A2. The Marseille midfielder met Lucas Digne’s corner to give Les Bleus the lead.

Aston Villa defender Digne’s free-kick then hit the crossbar and went in off Italy goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario. Italy would have finished top had they lost by only one goal and Andrea Cambiaso’s cushioned volley gave them hope.

But Rabiot’s excellent header into the top corner from Digne’s left-wing free-kick settled things for France.
