The azzurrini didn't play particularly well, especially in the first half, but obviously did enough to win.
While not his best performance, the man of the match was without doubt Giovinco.
Pelle did a lot better in the second half.
Nocerino struggled playing to the right of Cigarini.
Both Motta and De Silvestri played well.
I'm not sure if the squad was posted somewhere else, but here it is:
Guarente (Atalanta); Pelle' (AZ Alkmaar); Lanzafame (Bari); Acquafresca e Canini (Cagliari); Abate, Bassi, Giovinco, Marchisio e Marzoratti (Empoli); Osvaldo (Fiorentina); Bocchetti (Frosinone); Nocerino (Juventus); De Silvestri (Lazio); Cigarini e Dessena (Parma); Dellafiore e Motta (Torino); De Ceglie e Galloppa (Siena); Coda (Udinese); Alfonso (Venezia).
Candreva from Udinese replaced Acquafresca who pulled out with an injury.
