Nations League round-up: Germany maul Italy

On a night when 10-man England slumped to a dismal 4-0 defeat at the hands of Hungary in their UEFA Nations League clash at Molineux, Group A3 rivals Italy suffered a similarly heavy, if less humiliating, 5-2 defeat to Germany in Monchengladbach.

Fresh from their loss to the Republic of Ireland, Scotland came from behind to beat Armenia 4-1 in their Group B1 encounter in Yerevan.

Edin Dzeko scored twice as Group B3 leaders Bosnia came from 2-1 down to beat Finland 3-2 in Zenica while Stefan Mugosa hit a hat-trick to fire Montenegro to a 3-0 win in Romania.

Kaan Ayhan and Hakan Calhanoglu scored to ensure Turkey ma
