Ruthless Italy crush Czech Republic 4-0 in pre-Euro 2020 friendly, Spain and Portugal playout goalless draw

Italy registered a thumping 4-0 win over Czech Republic in a international friendly while Spain and Portugal played out an entertaining 0-0 draw on Friday as the sides prepared for this month's European Championship.

Italy swept aside the Czech Republic 4-0 on Friday with a ruthless attacking display and all-around performance that could make them a dangerous side when Euro 2020 kicks off next week. Lazio forward Ciro Immobile put the hosts ahead in the 23rd minute against the run of play when he latched onto a weak clearance and swept the ball into the net after it took a slight deflection off a Czech defender. "It is still early to say where we can go, but we know what we are capable of," said Napoli midfielder Lorenzo Insigne, who scored and had an assist to mark his 30th birthday.
