Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Giorgio Chiellini Unable to stop Ruiz scoring and look tired and off the pace throughout, poor. Should have been guilty of giving away a penalty also but the referee didn’t give it. 4

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Matteo Darmian Completely different player to that who performed so well against England. Frequent mistakes and beaten in the air for the goal. 4

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Ignazio Abate Did OK up and down from full-back but never really troubled Costa Rica. 5

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Daniele De Rossi Not bad and full of endeavor as ever but couldn’t find that final killer ball. 6

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Andrea Pirlo Still played all his usual exquisite passes but ran out of ideas towards the end. 6

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Antonio Candreva Offered very little and rightly taken off before the hour mark. 4
Getty Images
Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Mario Balotelli Wasted two or three good chances before the hour mark and then was irritable and frustrated from then on and offered nothing. Caught offside countless times. 4

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Keylor Navas Saved well from one or two Italy efforts but had a far easier night’s work then he would have expected. 7

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Michael Umana Did well to nullify Balotelli’s threat throughout the game. 7

Italy 0 Costa Rica 1: Player ratings Junior Diaz Superb from full-back, one of Costa Rica’s best players. Endless energy, good in a tackle, solid at the back and a threat going forward. Very good indeed. 9
