Italy cruised to a 1-0 win over Scotland in an international friendly on Sunday in Malta in the first of two friendlies the Azzurri will play ahead of the upcoming UEFA Euro 2016 tournament.

As shared by the team's official Twitter account, Italy lined up in a 3-5-2 formation, with Emanuele Giaccherini receiving a surprise start in midfield:
