SALVADOR, Brazil -- Italy was left battered and bruised after losing two starters to injury in a 4-2 loss to Brazil at the Confederations Cup. And the Azzurri have just five days to recuperate before probably facing World Cup holder Spain in the semifinals. Midfielder Riccardo Montolivo exited in the 26th minute Saturday due to dizziness after a knock to the head and fullback Ignazio Abate walked off gingerly two minutes later with an injury to his right shoulder following a collision with Brazil standout Neymar, ending his tournament. "Abate has a serious problem with his shoulder. His Confederations Cup is finished," Italy coach Cesare Prandelli said. "We can only wish him the best of luck to heal quickly and eventually come back. "Riccardo was hit with the ball in the first minute and was a bit nauseous so we had to take him off but he seems OK now," Prandelli added. However, team physician Enrico Castellacci said that Montolivo would undergo a scan at a local hospital. Italy was already without midfield star Andrea Pirlo, who sat out the game with a strained right leg muscle. Making matters worse, the Italians have struggled with the heat and humidity in their last two matches and now travel to the tournaments hottest venue of Fortaleza. "Were hoping Andrea comes back and that the rest of the squad can recuperate over these four-five days so we can play a good match," Prandelli said. Italy finished second to Brazil in Group A and will next face the winner of Group B. Spain leads Group B with a full six points ahead of its final group game against Nigeria on Sunday. Uruguay and Nigeria are next with three points each, with Uruguay facing Tahiti -- which has zero points -- in the other group game Sunday. Italy last faced Spain in the final of last years European Championship, when the Azzurri were beaten 4-0. Prandelli and his players cited fatigue as the cause of that result, having opened that tournament by drawing 1-1 with Spain. A bit of positive news for Italy was that Stephan El Shaarawy has recovered from a bruised foot. The AC Milan forward came on for the final 18 minutes against Brazil. Also, midfielder Daniele De Rossi will be back from suspension, having missed the Brazil match after picking up two yellow cards. Italy also let in four goals in their previous match, but Prandelli was not concerned with his defence. "Brazils fourth goal came when we were pressing forward attempting to equalize, so thats nothing to worry about," he said. "I was very encouraged by how we played and reacted in the second half." Italys two goals Saturday came from Emanuele Giaccherini, who came on for Montolivo, and from centre back Giorgio Chiellini. Giaccherini set up Mario Balotellis winner in Italys opener against Mexico and forced an own goal in the win over Japan. Balotelli returned the favour this time with an acrobatic setup for Giaccherinis second goal in 12 appearances with the national team As for Chiellini, it was his third goal in 60 appearances. .

Cuban testified Thursday that he was upset when the companys CEO told him news that would reduce the value of his shares, for which hed paid $7.5 million. But he said he did nothing improper when he sold those shares over the next two days. The foot race Sri Lanka had clearly resolved to try and push England a bit harder on a ground known for high scores but good intentions were no match for Jonny Bairstows quick reactions in the second over. Danushka Gunathilaka dropped the ball down into the covers and immediately called his partner, Kusal Perera, through for one. Bairstow was far quicker off the mark - though Pereras running line was slightly obstructed by the bowler, Chris Woakes - and his scampering underarm throw caught the batsman inches short. Perera, who has been run out four times in his last 10 ODI innings, might have stood a better chance with a dive.The finger stinger England chose to include two spinners, despite the poor forecast and a pitch that had sweated under covers, and it was hard not to have sympathy with Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali as they hugged themselves in the field and waited for the call. There was little for them in a true batting surface, either, but Moeen did get some heat into his fingertips when Gunathilaka drove uppishly back to the bowlers right. Moeen threw himself low to try and take a one-handed catch but the ball burst through his fingers and away - probably leaving his bowling hand feeling even more numb.The statement six(es) With a solid platform from which to attack England from at last, Dinesh Chandimal and Angelo Mathews came out swinging. Both smeared Moeen over deep midwicket, Mathews with a particularly brutal swipe into the crowd; but Chandimal upped the stakes a couple of overs later when he took on Liam Plunkett, giving the charge to an 86mph delivery and driving back over the bowlers head and into the second tier of the pavilion. Not content with making Plunkett look like a medium-pace trundler, he then jumped across to uppercut a short ball over third man to go to his half-century with another six.The scoop Mathewss hitting during the closing stages ensured his side would soar beyond 300 for the first time in the series, particularly when he helped himself to 14 off the penultimate overr, bowled by Plunkett.dddddddddddd That included a sequence of three consecutive fours and it was one of his more deft strokes that stood out, as he contorted his body to flip a full, fast attempted yorker from around off stump clean over short fine leg, much to Plunketts chagrin.The assaultJason Roy is the sort of opener who forces bowlers to wake up and smell the coffee whether they like it or not. He was well into his stride, having reached 50 from 39 balls, when Nuwan Pradeep began his fifth over. Pradeep began with a leg-side wide - although there was a suspicion Roy might have got a tiny edge on it - and was then subjected to a disdainful barrage of 6-4-4. The first was a crashing blow over long-on; the second dispatched through the covers with a fluid drive; the third clipped smartly off his pads as he walked across to make use of Pradeeps change of line. Up came the England hundred and a sense of the momentum shifting.The stunner Gunathilaka had already made his third ODI fifty and picked up the second wicket of his short career when he latched on to what must surely be his best catch in a Sri Lanka shirt. Eoin Morgan connected well with a slash off Suranga Lakmal that looked set to give third man a test when a flying Gunathilaka intercepted it one-handed leaping to his right at backward point. Sri Lankas catching has not been perfect on this tour but Gunathilakas celebration in the direction of the dressing room suggested he has not been shirking.The final word Roys hundred on his home ground was met with a rousing reception, as the crowd rose for a player much appreciated in these parts. Whether he took Chandimals effort at endangering spectators in the pavilion as a personal challenge is unknown but the clean strike over the sightscreen off Seekkuge Prasanna in the 25th over, the ball ricocheting off the concrete steps, was as emphatic as anything seen all night.
