Switzerland vs Italy [1-1] Inler & Quagliarella Friendly all Goals 2010 ------------------------------------------------------------ Gokhan Inler - Fabio Quagliarella Suiza vs Italia vs schweiz vs suisse vs svizzera ?????? ???????? ?????? ??? ?????? ? ??????? With Italy suffering an embarrassing defeat to Mexico during the week all eyes were on Marcello Lippi,s to see how they would bounce back in their last friendly encounter before flying out to South Africa. Gokhan Inler opening the scoring early on when he made the most of some standing off by the Azzurri to bury a strike inside the post. La Nazionale came fighting back however and it was Fabio Quagliarella who leveled the scoring when his header went in off the post. During the second period the visitors enjoyed more of the possession but neither merited the victory as they both failed to create any clear cut chances to score. The Azzurri went away with a well fought draw and went some way to regaining pride following their disappointing defeat two days earlier. Switzerland started strongly and gave Italy an early scare when Lazio wing-back Stephen Lichtsteiner whipped an inviting ball into the danger zone. Giorgio Chiellini scrambled clear the danger at the back post. The Azzurri looked rather shaky in the middle and the absence of the injured Andrea Pirlo only seemed to make matters worse. On 10 minutes the Swiss broke the deadlock when Udinese,s Inler launched a pinpoint drive into the bottom corner. At first glance it seemed as if Federico Marchetti should have done better at his near post, but the error was originally forged by Riccardo Montolivo who backed off his marker on the edge of the box. The Fiorentina man made up for his shortcomings just four minutes later when he provided the assist for the Italians leveler. Montolivo planted a quick cross into the path of Quagliarella, and the Neapolitan did wonderfully to find the far post with a tricky headed finish. Shortly after Switzerland almost restored their lead when Valon Behrami was given time and space to shoot from 20 yards. Fortunately for Lippi,s side the West Ham man could only blast into the path of Gianluca Zambrotta who deflected the danger away from goal. On the stroke of halftime Italy almost got their noses in front when Giampaolo Pazzini lunged into the path of a loose ball at the back post. The Doria hitman went agonizingly close to making contact, but he couldn,t stretch the final inch necessary to tap the ball into the back of the net.
