Soccer: Italy lose 1-2 to France in 1st Euro U21 group match

(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 23 - Italy lost 1-2 to France in their first group D match of the Uefa European Under-21 Championship at the Cluj Arena in Romania on Thursday.
    The Azzurini coached by Paolo Nicolato failed to take full advantage of the weak French defence, while the lack of VAR and goal-line technology saw their equaliser not given.
