France were missing Kylian Mbappé, who has returned to Real Madrid after injuring his left knee while scoring the winner against Turkey on Friday. The visitors still had the better of the chances with Désiré Doué cracking a shot off the bar in the first half and debutant Lucas Da Cunha striking a post early in the second half.

The contest was heading to an unremarkable goalless conclusion until Olise intervened, having been sent on in the 77th minute in place of Bradley Barcola. France sit top of Group A1 with six points and will host Italy at the Stade de France on Friday, while Belgium entertain Turkey in Liège.

Italy bounced back from an opening 2-0 defeat to Belgium in Rome, as they thrashed Turkey 4-1 on a rainy night in Bursa. Roberto Mancini’s team dazzled in the downpour, scoring three goals inside the first half-hour as the hosts were punished for defensive errors in their muddy goalmouth.

Italy went ahead when Bursa-born fullback Zeki Celik swung wildly at a low near-post corner, deflecting the ball to Alessandro Bastoni who fired into the roof of the net. View image in fullscreenMichael Kayode celebrates after scoring Italy’s third goal inside the first 30 minutes against Turkey.

Four minutes later, Kayode found himself free on the right side of the penalty area, and his near-post shot eluded the Turkish goalkeeper.
