INFO:
Giuntoli was a full-back. He spent his entire career at Pisa where he made 137 appearances from 1920 to 1931, scoring 1 goal. He played a major role in the historical 1920-21 season where Pisa finished runner-up in the Italian Prima Categoria, losing the final 2-1 against Pro Vercelli.
Giuntoli was a physical defender, at times prone to commit fouls. He had a great duel against Alessandro Rampini in the 1921 Prima Categoria final, although the Pro Vercelli's striker eventually managed to score the winning goal. Giuntoli was a bit of an atypical defender for the time as it wasn't too rare that he would join the attack and attempt the shot, like he did when he scored his only ever goal in the match against Hellas Verona on 16th March 1924. He likely possessed remarkable positioning given that he was always ready to anticipate the opposing striker and clear the ball away with force, often sending it to the midfield where a teammate could start the attack.
