"Italy celebrated a fourth-straight World Cup qualifying win with a comfortable 3-1 Group I victory over Estonia in Tallinn. The visitors ensured they kept the pressure on Norway -- who currently top the group -- and victory meant they pulled three points clear of Israel with a game in hand. Moise Kean carried on his rich vein of form in front of goal for his country with his fourth goal in qualifying, which put Italy ahead before Mateo Retegui doubled their lead."
"Italy were threatening from the off and Estonia goalkeeper Karl Hein was forced into his first save to deny Giacomo Raspadori in the fourth minute. However there was nothing he could do to stop Italy from taking the lead through Kean, less than a minute later. The 25-year-old weaved his way into the area and produced a few stepovers to bamboozle the Estonian defenders before he caressed his effort into the far corner."
