Tonali scores winner as Italy win nine-goal thriller against Israel in World Cup Qualifier

Sandro Tonali scored in added time as Italy kept their World Cup qualifying hopes on track with a thrilling 5-4 win over Israel in Debrecen.

The Israelis twice led and then scored twice in the last five minutes to haul the score back to 4-4 before Tonali threaded his last-gasp winner from the edge of the box.

The result was harsh on Israel, who went ahead through Manuel Locatelli’s early own goal and grabbed the lead again through Dor Peretz after Moise Kean had equalised.

Kean’s second, followed by further strikes from Matteo Politano and Giacomo Raspadori, looked to have settled it only for Alessandro Bastoni to put through his own net on 87 minutes, and Peretz to grab his second two minutes later.
