Tuesday, June 19, 2012 Report by Rajarshi Ghosh
Italy have qualified for the quarter-finals of Euro 2012 as Group C runners-up thanks to a 2-0 win over Republic of Ireland.
Cesare Prandelli's men were on top for the majority of the first half, and a header from Antonio Cassano 10 minutes before half-time gave the Azzurri a lead to hold on to for a long period of time.
Mario Balotelli then stepped up to seal the victory moments before the final whistle with a typically dramatic finish from just outside the six-yard box.
The victory sees Italy move on to the quarter-finals of Euro 2012, and will face the winners of Group of D. Republic of Ireland are heading home from Poland and Ukraine without have registered a point in the group.
