Soccer: Italy beat Venezuela 2-1 in friendly

(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 22 - Italy beat Venezuela 2-1 in an international friendly match at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Thursday with two goals from Mateo Retegui.
    However, coach Luciano Spalletti said in some things the azzurri had been "light" and "superficial".
    "We have to work on this," he said. "From the point of view of physical impact we need to put more into it because in some things we are superficial," added Spalletti.
    Italy will meet Ecuador at the Red Bull Arena in Harrison, New Jersey, in another friendly on Sunday. (ANSA).
