However, North Macedonia scored a later equaliser. In the 81st minute, Enis Bardhi scored a stunning free-kick past the Italy goalkeeper to level the score.

The game ended 1-1 with the points shared. A win would have put Italy just one point behind Ukraine with a game in hand.
North Macedonia have become a boogie team for the Italians. They missed out on the deciding World Cup qualifier playoff tie after a stunning 1-0 loss at home to North Macedonia thanks to Aleksandar Trajkovski’s last-gasp strike
