Azzurri romping to recordpublished at 20:23 British Summer Time 8 September 2021
Roberto Mancini's European champions Italy have established a 4-0 lead inside half an hour, with Everton forward Moise Kean - who has re-joined Juventus on loan - getting two.
Some claim Italy have already beaten the longest unbeaten streak in the world history of the national teams, but Brazil insist they also went 36 games unbeaten between1993 and 1996. The confusion is over a match during that run against a Romania B side.
Italy are making all those arguments meaningless.
West Ham's Pablo Fornals has given Spain the lead in Kosovo, while Belgium lead in Belarus.
England's group rivals Albania lead San Marino 1-0 to move above Poland into second in the 'as it stands' table.
