Manchester City secured a 3-0 victory over Chelsea, moving closer to Arsenal in the league standings.
Germany dominated the first half, creating numerous chances but only managing to score once through Kai Havertz's penalty after a handball. Despite their wastefulness, they maintained pressure throughout the match.
Raphael Veiga's 20th-minute strike was enough to separate the two sides on Tuesday, though the Union squandered multiple chances to level the tie in front of their home fans. After a quiet start from both teams, Veiga scored with the first shot of the match. He flicked up a pass from Brian Rodriguez before lashing his powerful attempt in off the crossbar, leaving Andrew Rick with no chance of making a save.
After the Futuro started well, Caratese struck against the run of play not long before the break. Capelli crossed for Biondini who found the corner well after a nice touch. Capelli then nearly doubled the lead two minutes later, missing narrowly.
