  "account": "In an electrifying encounter at San Siro, Italy secured a 3-1 victory over France, marking Zinedine Zidane's first loss as France's head coach. Francesco Pio Esposito was instrumental in the win, netting twice to propel Italy to the top of Group A1 in the Nations League standings. Michael Olise opened the scoring for the visitors just 10 minutes in, capitalizing on a missed penalty by Gianluigi Donnarumma. Italy equalized through Esposito and added another goal via Davide Frattesi, both coming in the second half. Despite France's early dominance and two near misses, the Azzurri's resilience secured a crucial win against their long-standing rivals.",
