Italy launches first new generation with five children born after 2000

The generational change is finally happening in Italy, as for the first time they field five players born in this millennium.

The match kicks off at a neutral venue at the Boszik Arena in Budapest at 7.45pm UK time (6.45pm GMT).

You can follow all preparations and actions live on the LIVEBLOG.

The Azzurri make a number of changes from the team that beat France 3-1 in Paris on Friday night after scoring an early goal.

New faces for Italy

Alessandro Buongiorno, Raoul Bellanova, Giacomo Raspadori and Moise Kean all make the starting line-up.

If we take Samuele Ricci from Turin and Newcastle United midfielder Sandro Tonali, who also played against France, there are now five players in the line-up born after the year 2000.

This has never happened before for Italy, so a new record for the Azzurri.

The ‘youngsters’ are Ricci, Raspadori, Tonali, Kean and Bellanova.
