Del Piero and Inzaghi, with a double each, carry the Italian national to a convincing 4-0 win against Lithuania. The two strikers worked together in perfect synchrony and when they went to goal they were the first to celebrate together, thus confuting the rumours of their supposed antagonism. Zambrotta and Tacchinardi, both on the pitch from the start, also gave a convincing performance.

Other results
The match which everybody had their eyes on, Portugal – Holland, ended on a 2-2 draw. The team of Van Der Sar was leading by two goals, but was caught up towards the end. The Orange remain third in their heat. Bad news from South America, where Uruguay are beaten by Paraguay (1-0). The defeat puts the team's qualification in doubt. The Yugoslav team in which Kovacevic plays is in a similar situation after having drawn 1-1 with Slovenia. In the friendly against Spain, France are beaten 2-1. The goal of Le Bleu comes thanks to Trezeguet in the second half.
