Bologna v Genoa
2015-16 Italian Serie A
Emanuele Giaccherini - 11'
Sergio Floccari - 63'
Bologna claim vital win to steer clear of relegation danger
Bologna pulled out of a nosedive towards the Serie A relegation zone by beating Genoa 2-0 at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara.A nine-game winless run had seen Roberto Donadoni's men tumble down the table and into 16th place but goals from Emanuele Giaccherini and Sergio Floccari saw Bologna reach the security of 40 points for the season.On-loan Sunderland winger Giaccherini opened the scoring after 12 minutes as he steered Franco Brienza's clever through-ball beyond Eugenio Lamanna.In the 63rd minute Bologna doubled up, the Rossoblu capitalising on some penalty-box confusion when Cristian Ansaldi's clearance hit Floccari and went in.
