The Basque Oier Zarraga, executioner of a Lazio who did not raise his head

The Spanish midfielder Oier Zarraga exacerbated the crisis laziowho suffered their third defeat in the league, after scoring the winning goal (1-2) this Monday for Udinese at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, in his first match as a starter since he arrived last summer in the Friulian team.

Zarragawhich ended up being Udinese from Athletic Club justified his presence in the starting eleven by establishing the final 1-2 for the visitors in the 51st minute with a shot from the edge of the area. A goal that ended the first six minutes of a thrilling second half in which as many as three goals were scored.

If the forward Lorenzo Lucca opened the scoring for Udinese in the 47th minute after sending a cross from Ivorian Hassane Kamara into the nets (0-1), a minute later, in the 48th minute, the lazio tied the contest (1-1) with an own goal from Argentine Lautaro Giannetti.

A draw was broken three minutes later by Spaniard Oier Zarraga who wasted no time on Frenchman Florian Thauvin’s drop shot to score 1-2 with his right foot from the edge of the area.

Second goal for the Biscayan midfielder since his arrival in Italy, where Oier Zarragawho recorded 207 minutes in the hundred he played this Monday, made his debut as a scorer on December 23 in the field of Torino.

A goal that did not serve to give victory to Udinese, the complete opposite of what happened this Monday at the Olympic Stadium in Rome where Gabriele Coffi’s team achieved a fourth victory in the current league championship.

The victory allowed Udinese, who finished with one man less due to the dismissal of Argentine Nehuén Pérez, to move away from the bottom of the table, while Lazio, who suffered their third consecutive league defeat, is seeing that places in Europe are more distant.
