Italy conceded an embarrassing goal in their 3-3 Nations League quarter-final second-leg draw to Germany as the Azzurri were caught napping at a corner.
With Germany leading 1-0 in Dortmund, Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma made a good save to tip over Tim Kleindienst’s header for a corner.
The Paris Saint-Germain shot-stopper then began arguing with his team-mates as he wandered outside of his six-yard box.
With the visitors completely switched off, the quick-thinking Joshua Kimmich fired in a low corner for the unmarked Jamal Musiala to fire into an empty net.
The bizarre goal stood because a player cannot be offside at a corner kick.
Kimmich had earlier opened the scoring with a 30th-minute penalty before Musiala added the second six minutes later.
Kleindienst then made it 3-0 just before half-time, although Italy pulled off a second-half comeback to draw the second leg as ex-Everton striker Moise Kean scored twice and Giacomo Raspadori converted a 95th-minute penalty equaliser.
But it was not enough to prevent Luciano Spalletti’s side from exiting the Nations League as they lost 5-4 on aggregate, with Germany through to June’s Nations League finals, which they will host.

Cristiano Ronaldo missed a sixth-minute penalty for Portugal against Denmark
Cristiano Ronaldo missed a sixth-minute penalty against Denmark in Portugal’s Nations League quarter-final second leg, although he scored in the second half to put Roberto Martinez’s side ahead.
Ronaldo won a penalty after he was brought down by Manchester United defender Patrick Dorgu, but the 40-year-old had his spot-kick saved by Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.
But the ex-Leicester shot-stopper could not prevent Ronaldo from scoring in the 72nd minute as he finished from a tight angle to give Portugal a 2-1 lead.
Ronaldo then pulled off his ‘Sui’ celebration just three days after Man Utd striker Rasmus Hojlund copied it after scoring Denmark’s winner in the first leg in Copenhagen.
