22 September 2019Ready redemption of Lazio, fresh from defeats with Spal and Cluj in the Europa League, beat Parma 2-0 at the Olimpico in the postponement of the fourth day.

Simone Inzaghi's Lazio appeared with the tried and tested 3-5-2 with Marusic instead of Lazzari: Strakosha; Luiz Felipe, Acerbi, Radu; Marusic, Milinkovic-Savic, Lucas Leiva, Luis Alberto, Lulic; Correa, Immobile. D'Aversa's Parma responds with 4-3-3: Sepe; Darmian, Iacoponi, Bruno Alves, Gagliolo; Hernani, Brugman, Barillà; Kulusevski, English, Gervinho. Pass 8 'and Lazio is ahead: Luis Felipe's filtering ball that guesses the right corridor for Immobile, the Italian striker enters the area and beats Sepe with a diagonal that hits the outside post and then enters the net. For Immobile is already the number 4 goal in the league, second place among the scorers behind Berardi of Sassuolo. Biancocelesti in pressure, still dangerous with Correa who, from a slightly secluded position, commits Sepe. For the ducals to report only a good English initiative, stopped by Strakosha.

In the second half the reaction of the Emilians is expected but does not arrive. Lazio holds the reins of the game effortlessly. At the third corner kick in a row, Luis Alberto from the left flag with a poisonous parabola hits the post, saving the ducals. Biancocelesti at a whisker from the doubling on the 63 ': beautiful play Correa-Immobile that in the area serves his mate in the area, on the left a sure shot saves the desperate Pezzella. Inzaghi at 63 'puts Caicedo and takes away Immobile which does not take it well at all. A few minutes and the 2-0 arrives: launch of Milinkovic-Savic for Marusic, this time Pezzella falls asleep and leaves the go-ahead for the Montenegrin side who finds himself face to face with Sepe and the right one exceeds him (66 '). The 2-0 extinguishes every wish of a Parma that appeared rather subdued. Of note only in the final an Emilian counterattack managed not in the best way by the newly placed Cornelius and, on the other front, the one concluded by Milinkovic-Savic with a diagonal that is lost on the bottom. Thus ends, with the Lazio supporters' party.
