Serie A
Lazio – AC Fiorentina 1:1: The violas stopped the Romans
Lazio took an early lead through Casale but failed to secure a third straight win and catch up with second-placed Inter as Fiorentina drew 1-1 and Gonzalez ended his unbeaten run.
Buoyed by their 2-0 away win over Sassuolo and even more so by their 4-0 triumph over AC Milan at the Olimpico midweek, Lazio entered the same stadium on Sunday night (29/01) and won just in the 8th minute the lead against Fiorentina.
This was achieved by a brilliant move by Casale in the penalty area (his first goal in Serie A), the Biancocelesti leading the game superbly until the end of the first half, but the Viola didn’t give up and responded in the second half.
They did so impressively when Nico Gonzalez thundered past Provendel with an incredible long-range left-footed shot in the 49th minute to make it 1-1, a move that was not changed after Immobile came on in the 71st minute (from behind). injuries).
The Eagles of Rome had a great chance to clinch the treble in the 94th minute but Milinkovic-Savic’s shot was blocked at the post, with the tie celebrated by Fiorentina, who avoided a third straight defeat and angered Lazio after they denied them the chance to get Inter in second place.
