The game’s only goal came in the fourth minute of first half added time when Francesco Amatucci finished a cutback by Alessio Vita from close range, after some excellent work out wide by Giuseppe Carriero.
The rest of the game produced a series of half chances, with neither goal keeper truly threatened.
