Alexis Saelemaekers - Belgium

Saelemaekers got the opportunity to make his national team debut and registered a fantastic assist setting up Michy Batshuayi for the opening goal of the game against Ivory Coast in a friendly encounter.

Sandro Tonali - Italy U21

Tonali featured in the 2-0 win over Northern Ireland as a holding midfielder. He put on his usual solid display as he played with much younger players around him.

Jens Petter Hauge - Norway

Hauge also managed to make his debut for his national side coming off the bench against Romania in a 4-0 win. He was unused in the following two games.

Ciprian Tatarusanu - Romania

The keeper had an international break to forget as his side got battered 4-0 by Norway and then lsot 1-0 to Austria hence conceding 5 goals in 2 games.

Matteo Gabbia - Italy U21

Gabbia had an international break to forget as he contracted the coronavirus whilst on international duty ruling him out of the derby. This also gives Alessio Romagnoli the space to take over without any disruption or having Gabbia fight for his place.
