It had been coming for the past fifteen minutes at least, but Marek Hamsik finally broke through the Genoa defenses, and managed to find a place on the pitch that wasn't more befitting of the word "swamp", to score the opening goal at the San Paolo.Salavtore Aronica sent in the floating cross before Hamsik controlled the resulting header from Edinson Cavani (although not superbly, as the commentator put it, considering it was a little twist with his shoulder) to set himself up perfectly for the shot. Eduardo could do nothing but dive -- much like the rest of the players on this slip and slide of a pitch -- while the ball settled into the far corner of the net.
