Germany 5-2 Italy

Germany deserved their win today but were a little flattered by the final scoreline.
Andrew Coleman got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row when he was on hand to turn in a good cross from Alex V for the firs goal of the game: 1-0 to Italy. It might have been 2-0 but Filippo C got back to clear the ball off the line.
Germany equalised when Luca R rose to head home a Francesco R throw-in and the brothers repeated the dose two minute later to send their team into half-time with a 2-1 lead, though it might have been 2-2 had Andrew not missed a good chance from close range.
Italy started well again in the second half and Luka D's determination was rewarded when his excellent pass found Filippo G free on the left and Bomber Gigli scored with a well-placed shot. The Germans now redoubled their efforts and improved their passing and team play. Filippo C came forward a little more and Francesco B had to clear a ball off the line.
But the Germans were not to be denied and they took the lead with yet another headed goal, this time from Filippo C. Nicholas made it 4-2: Edo R made it 5-2.
