Italy ease into the knockout stages after thrashing Jamaica 5-0

Italy beat Jamaica 5-0 on Friday, securing their place in the round of 16. 

Cristiana Girelli's hat-trick and Aurora Galli's brace saw them through, not bad for a team that hasn't played in the World Cup Finals for two decades. 

The Azzure had already taken three points from the 2-1 win over Australia. 

For their next match, they face Brazil, which will be much more of a test.
