During the UEFA Nations League Group A match against France, Italy defender Riccardo Calafiori suffered an injury and was unable to finish the game. However, there is no need for fans of the Azzurri to worry too much.

Details: According to Luciano Spalletti, Calafiori's injury is not serious. The Arsenal defender sustained a bruise in a collision with Ousmane Dembélé.

The center-back is expected to return as early as the next match against Israel on Monday.

To Recall: The French team scored a very early goal, with Barcola putting them ahead just 13 seconds into the match. Before halftime, the Italians responded with an equalizer from Dimarco.

After the break, Italy quickly took the lead. In the 51st minute, Davide Frattesi scored, and a few minutes later, Giacomo Raspadori made it 3-1. As a result, Italy secured a 3-1 victory over France.
