Wales have qualified for the last 16 of Euro 2020 despite losing 1-0 to Italy in Rome.
www.standard.co.ukHere are the latest updates I can share about Wales vs Italy, based on recent coverage:
- Wales beat Italy 31-17 in their Six Nations clash in Cardiff, snapping a long winless run in the tournament and ending a 15-game streak without a Six Nations win at home. This result came March 13, 2026, and was described as a dominant Wales performance with Aaron Wainwright scoring two first-half tries and Dewi Lake adding another before halftime [Sky Sports match reports].

- Italy’s scoring came via a late mention of a driving maul try by Luigi Di Bartolomeo, with Tommaso Allan contributing penalties, but Wales’s early onslaught left Italy with too much ground to recover [Sky Sports match report excerpt; Italian scoring details].

- In the Six Nations context, Wales’s win was notable for breaking a three-year drought in the tournament and their first home win since February 2022, though it still leaves them at the wooden spoon end of the table unless other results swing in their favor [Sky Sports overview].
