However, the away side launched an assault of the Lombardy goal and scored three times after the interval, to clinch the win. It was the Riccardo Orsolini show; he set up Rodrigo Palacio for a tap-in, then from a corner, Andrea Poli bundled home from close range and then the 21-year old got his name on the score-sheet with a volley from four yards out from a Palacio cross.
