Italy 1-1 Netherlands

After drawing a blank against Poland over the weekend, Lorenzo Pellegrini opened the scoring for the Azzurri in the 16th minute.
The Dutch were back on level terms just over ten minutes later because of Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek.
Neither side could actually discover a winning goal, as the Italians sit in the second spot as the Dutch find themselves in the third spot.
