Italy maintain their unbeaten record in Group H of the Euro Qualifiers with 3-1 away win over Azerbaijan at Baku.
The visitors went ahead when Sampdoria striker Eder slotted in from Marco
Verratti's superb pass.
Azerbaijan equalised through Dmitri Nazarov's low, first-time strike, but
Italy regained the lead as Stephan El Shaarawy tapped in from close range.
Manchester United full-back Matteo Darmian hit a third, and Azeri defender
Badavi Huseynov was sent off late on.
Having failed to make it through to Sweden in 1992, Italy - runners-up in 2000
and 2012 - have now qualified for six consecutive Euro tournaments.
