Match overview
Italy progressed to the quarter-finals with a 2-0 victory over Uruguay in Rome. Salvatore Schillaci opened the scoring in the second half with his third goal of the tournament, and substitute Aldo Serena sealed the win. Italy maintained their perfect defensive record, having not conceded a goal throughout the World Cup.
Trivia
Schillaci continued his remarkable scoring run as the tournament’s leading goalscorer, while Italy’s defence remained unbreached for a fourth consecutive match. The hosts advanced to face the Republic of Ireland in the quarter-finals, maintaining their dream of winning the World Cup on home soil.
