Mumbai, February 18: Venezia's winless run ticked up to eight games after the team conceded two goals in the last eight minutes to lose 2-0 to Genoa in Serie A. Venezia last win came against Cagliari on Dec. 22 and it remains in 19th place, two points above last-place Monza and four behind Parma. The home side came close through Nicolussi Caviglia and Kike Perez in the first half on Monday but Genoa was on top in the second period, with Venezia keeper Ionut Radu pulling off excellent saves to deny Aaron Martin and Andrea Pinamonti.
