[Coppa Italia] Struggling Siena secure progress

Siena put their league troubles behind them on Thursday as they saw off Grosseto in the Coppa Italia.

Siena 2-0 GrossetoSerie A's bottom side secured a much-needed 2-0 victory over second tier opposition to move into the fourth round.

Emanuele Calaio got them up and running, breaking the deadlock after 56 minutes.


Argentine striker Marcelo Larrondo then wrapped things up nine minutes from time when he added a second.

Grosseto were reduced to 10 men in stoppage-time when Luigi Consonni was shown a straight red card.

The Tuscan minnows will face giant-killers Novara in the next round.
