Atalanta 0-2 Lazio: Roman triumph in Bergamo

What if they didn’t have Bomber Ciro Immobile and were up against previously unbeaten (7 wins – 3 draws) Atalanta? Lazio have been in top form lately and showed it impressively in Bergamo as they kept a sixth straight clean sheet and recorded an impressive 2-0 win on matchday 11 of Serie A that put them third in the table .

Maurizio Sarri’s team’s first ‘blow’ came in the 10th minute with Jacani’s place after a superb assist from Pedro, while the 2-0 fell in the 52nd minute when Marusic served Felipe Anderson and he matched with the right dribble- Shot gained altitude of the large area after Sportiello.

The aftermath didn’t bring a change of scenery as the Bergamaskis were seemingly powerless to change their fortunes and were forced to their first loss of the season, allowing the Eagles of Rome to become housemates in the standings.

Gasperini’s side were reduced to 10 men in the 89th minute after Muriel was sent off for a second yellow card. In the final, Lazio celebrated a great success after keeping a clean sheet in six consecutive league games for the second time in their history (the previous one was on March 7, 1998, coached by Sven-Göran Eriksson.
