Wales go ten points clear of Italy

Brian Flynn's Wales Under 21 team saw off their Italian counterparts 2-1 at Swansea's Liberty Stadium in their European qualifier. Wales took the lead on nine minutes when Bristol City defender Christian Ribeiro opened the scoring, only for Italy to level the scores before half-time thanks to a goal from Parma forward Alberto Paloschi. Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey secured the win against Pierluigi Casiraghi's side, with the decisive goal on 68 minutes. It was a stunning piece of brilliance from Ramsey as he received the ball from Ched Evans and produced a feint, a clever juggling act and a fierce drive past Vincenzo Fiorillo. Brian Flynn's team have racked up ten points from their opening four games, and condemn Italy to defeat in their opening qualifier
