ITALY EMBARRASSED BY LUXEMBOURG

European minnows Luxembourg embarrassed Italy, and denied them a first win in seven games, with a late equaliser in Wednesday's World Cup warm-up in Perugia.
Claudio Marchisio's ninth-minute goal had put the hosts in front and Italy should have extended their lead but were twice denied by the woodwork in the second half.
Maxine Chanot earned the visitors a 1-1 draw with five minutes remaining when he nodded past a helpless Gianluigi Buffon in the Italy goal.
Italy will now try to put the embarrassing result behind them before their opener against England.
