Mario Balotelli scored both goals as Italy defeated Malta 2-0 to move three points clear at the top of its World Cup qualifying Group B on Tuesday.

The AC Milan striker opened his account early in the first half from the penalty spot before doubling his tally just before halftime, making it 10 goals in his past nine matches for both club and country.

However, the home side could count itself a little unlucky as it missed a penalty and also clattered the crossbar in the first half.
