Croatia drew Italy 1:1. Photo from cbs.ca
Croatia stole a point by drawing Italy 1:1 in a match from Group C of Euro 2012.
Andrea Pirlo gave the Italians the lead with a curving free kick in the 39th minute, but Mario Mandzukic was left unmarked to equalize for Croatia in the 72nd.
Italy had numerous other first-half chances from Mario Balotelli, Claudio Marchisio and Antonio Cassano, but the Azzurri lacked finishing quality. Balotelli, in particular, appeared hesitant and missed one opportunity after another. And this time, second-half replacement Antonio Di Natale never really had a chance to score.
Having opened with a 3-1 win over Ireland, Croatia has four points in Group C. Italy has two points after its opening 1-1 draw with defending champion Spain.
In the final round of group matches on Monday, Italy faces Ireland and Croatia meets world champion Spain.
