“Lazio Triumphs over Juventus 2-1: The Chronicle of Serie A Match at the Olimpico”

Serie A, at the Olimpico Lazio beat Juventus 2-1 – THE CHRONICLE

Lazio is the second strength of this championship. At the Olimpico he beat Juventus 2-1 and consolidated his position behind Napoli and with a good seven points ahead of that fifth place, currently held by Inter, which means staying out of Europe. Juve, on the other hand, can only hope to get back the 15 points that were taken away from them and which, if returned, would mean overtaking Sarri’s biancocelesti. The verdict is expected on Wednesday 19 April, meanwhile Lazio will also have the advantage of playing once a week compared to the others, not having the Cups. The match winner of the evening is once again Mattia Zaccagni, as in the derby, but what delights the audience is not only the Biancoceleste’s goal but also the back-heel stroke, for the assist, provided by Luis Alberto, as good as he is moody but element which the team from the capital cannot do without, as well as Milinkovic Savic. Ciro Immobile’s return to the starting line-up hasn’t given concrete results, but the striker is certainly not in the ideal shape and needs time and to finally stay healthy. In the first half there was much more Lazio than Juventus (this evening entrusted to Marco Landucci, with Allegri blocked in Turin by fever) even if the response on the pitch was 1-1 at the double whistle, the result of the fact that the biancocelesti made the match but the guests defend themselves well.

Then in the final half, the last seven minutes, the goals arrive which send the crowd into raptures (as always, there is also a large Juventus representation at the Olimpico). Milinkovic almost always directs his own game, Bremer denies him a goal opportunity, then there is a save by Szczesny following a conclusion from Immobile. the 1-0 arrived in the 38th minute when Marusic caught Milinkovic-Savic from the left, who won a duel with Alex Sandro, stopped the ball and overtook Szczesny from a few steps away. Goal contested by Juve players for an alleged foul by the Serbian against the Brazilian. The action is reviewed in the Var and Di Bello remains of his idea and validates: Milinkovic’s hand on Alex Sandro’s back does not affect the development of the action. Angry reaction from the black and whites who immediately equalized with Adrien Rabiot. Corner that finds the goring of Bremer, rejected with the foot of Provedel that nothing can on the rebuttal of the French: 1-1 in the 42nd minute. In the second half, Lazio’s new lead on which this time there is nothing to object to: Zaccagni scores at the end of a splendid team action, in which Felipe Anderson aims for Alex Sandroe then puts in the middle, Luis Alberto sees the insertion on the opposite side by Zaccagni and serves it as a heel. The winger hits flat and it’s 2-1. Then Cuadrado continues to suffer from Zaccagni until he risks the red light and is replaced, Kositc is increasingly dull, the late blackouts of Parades, Milik and the excellent Chiesa are of little use. Tonight is a Lazio from the Champions League, and in the end it’s a Lazio party.
