Head coach Hector Cuper opted to start the Roma forward, who headed in his side's equaliser in the 41st minute before setting up Abdallah El-Said for the winner.
The other two Giallorossi stars involved in internationals were Daniele De Rossi and Alessandro Florenzi, who were both on the bench in Italy's 3-2 win away against Macedonia - after playing the full 90 minutes in the draw with Spain last week.
