Milan must have entered a crisis after conceding their second straight win against Lazio (4-0). If last Wednesday his eternal rivals Inter inflicted a 3-0 defeat on him in Riyadh with the Super Cup at stake, the disaster in Rome, after two separate draws in the two previous days, leaves him 12 points behind Naples that day. passes He is closer to the ‘scudetto’ mainly for his merits but also for the setbacks of his pursuers.
Lazio, who are already third, one point behind Milan, staged an outstanding first half, moving the ball around at a high speed and with maximum precision.
The attack composed of Mattia Zaccagni, Felipe Anderson, who scored for the third day in a row, and Pedro Rodríguez, who took the penalty, drove the ‘Rossonera’ defense crazy with the help of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Luis Alberto, with author. of a penalty on goal, in a great display by the choir.
Zaccagni opened the can
They were the last with just four minutes left when Zaccagni put in a ball from the left, Luis Alberto and Felipe Anderson did well to miss it and Milinkovic-Savic, alone, put in his left foot to open the scoring. .
A dull and soulless Milan had creative problems, lacked ideas and was at the mercy of the rival all the time. As if that wasn’t enough, he beat defender Fikayo Tomori in the 23rd minute.
great peter
At 35 years old, Pedri performed at a very high level, as in a great attack on the left to the bottom line that did not end in a goal because Felipe Anderson did not get the end of his delayed pass.
This is the prelude to 2-0. Pedro also participated here, this time on the right. Winger Adan Marusic slipped into the kitchen, shot against the post and Zaccagni pushed the ball into the net (38′).
Lazio controlled the times
In the second half, Lazio slowed down a bit and dedicated themselves to managing the game hours at will against a Milan that had no reaction. Luis Alberto made it 3-0 by converting a penalty that Pierre Kalulu committed on Pedro in his attempt to avoid the former Barça winger’s shot (66′).
With Milan already surrendering, a great collective action by Lazio ended with Luis Alberto making a brilliant touch from the short that left only Felipe Anderson to beat the desperate Ciprian Tatarusanu (75′ ).
All in Immobile as a spectator
A resounding 4-0 with Ciro Immobile, injured, as a spectator on the wing. A fact that speaks for itself of the potential of this Lazio delivered in the offensive football of Maurizio Sarri.
