Good evening and welcome to Serie A live with Palermo and Genoa set to go head to head at the Stadio Renzo Barbera.

The full time whistle is blown. 1-0 Palermo. A much deserved victory for the home side.

Four minutes of injury time to be played.

Pastore has earned his wages tonight with a masterful display but a goal evaded him all night.

Final change for the home side. Pastore is replaced by Massimo Maccarone.

Ezequiel Munoz rises high at the far post to send a header goalwards but the ball veers wide at the last moment.

Miccoli wriggles free of his marker but his left foot shot is blocked.

Kaladze gets his revenge for that earlier Pastore fould with a rugged challenge on the Argentine.

Pastore goes in the referee's book for tugging back the rampaging Kaladze.

Substitution for Palermo. Goalscorer Pinilla leaves to a standing ovation and Fabrizio Miccoli takes his place.

Brilliant footballl from Genoa! Where did that come from? Toni, Destro and Veloso combining before the latter fires goalwards only to be denied by Sirigu.

Substitute Destro looks to make an impact but is crowded out by two Palermo defenders before he can even think about directing his header goalwards.

Toni flirts with the offside line before being resolutely snubbed. Genoa running out of ideas.

Defensive move made by Palermo boss Delio Rossi there. Time to shut up shop perhaps.

Substitution for Palermo. Ilicic leaves the field and is replaced by Nicolae Goian

All aboard the showboat apparently as Pastore juggles the ball boastfully.

Giandomenico Mesto lets fly from 25 yards and picks out someone in the crowd. Disappointing effort.

Embarrassing moment for Pinilla who lets the ball roll under his foot and out for a throw in. Schoolboy.

Boakye makes his first contribution to the game with a crunching tackle on Pinilla.

Third and final change for the visitors with Yiadom Boakye introduced to the field.

Substitution for Genoa. Mattia Destro replacing Franco Zuculini.
