Italy 6-0 Liechtenstein: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Fabio Quagliarella Stars in Azzurri Rout

A brace from veteran striker Fabio Quagliarella helped Italy trounce Liechtenstein 6-0 at the Ennio Tardini in Parma on Tuesday night.

The Azzurri's early possession looked rather ominous for the visitors as Roberto Mancini's side probed the compact Liechtenstein defence in search of the game's opening goal. Crucially for the home side, they were able to breach the compact Liechtenstein defence in the 17th minute, as left back Leonardo Spinazzola's sumptuous cross was headed home by Sassuolo midfielder Stefano Sensi for his first ever international goal.

Sensi's goal opened the floodgates for the home side as the industrious Marco Verratti soon doubled Italy's lead.
