Daniele Cacia should have doubled his side's advantage, but he could only fire straight at the keeper from Luca Toni's pass.

Juanito brought the home side level in the 82nd minute when he headed in Romulo's corner.

Their win was sealed three minutes from time, as Riccardo Cazzola was sent off for dragging down Cacia inside the box and Jorginho stepped up to fire home the spot kick.
