Salernitana have been relegated from Serie A after going down 3-0 to Frosinone.

The Salerno club posted only two wins from 35 league games this season and were bottom of the table.

Friday night's win was vital for Frosinone, one of at least seven teams fighting not to be one of the two other clubs to join Salernitana in the second tier next season.

Frosinone are three points above third-to-last Udinese and five ahead of second-to-last Sassuolo. Both teams have a game in hand.

Frosinone went ahead in the 10th minute when Matías Soulé converted from the penalty spot for the home side.

Marco Brescianini then doubled their lead 15 minutes later, and Nadir Zortea completed the scoring five minutes from time with a low shot from 25 yards out.
