Italy broke the world record for the longest unbeaten run in international football with a goalless draw at Switzerland on Sunday, while Germany got their World Cup qualifying campaign back on track by thrashing Armenia 6-0.

They now lead Armenia by two points, with Romania a point further back after beating Liechtenstein 2-0.
A shock home loss to North Macedonia earlier this year had put Germany’s qualification in danger.
