An Italian Serie C match descended into farce on Sunday as Cuneo beat Pro Piacenza 20-0.
Pro Piacenza are bottom of the Italian third tier, and have seen most of their first-team squad walk out on strike in a dispute with the club over unpaid wages.
They had been unable to field a team for their previous four league fixtures, resulting in 3-0 walkover defeats, and league regulations stipulate that any side that fails to fulfill five fixtures in a season is liable to be expelled.

That meant Pro Piacenza were forced to field a starting team of just seven players, including the club's massage therapist and six teenagers, and with 19-year-old Nicola Cirigliano listed as the team’s coach for the game.
