27 October 2019The Fiorentina unbeaten run is closed after six rounds, defeated by Cesarini from Lazio to the 'Franchi' (1-2). The biancocelesti rise to sixth place in the company of Cagliari, ninth place for the viola di Montella (together with Bologna).

High rhythms at first amusing and well played by the two teams. The first attempt, from the limit, is from Castrovilli (4 '): ball just wide. Luis Alberto (9 ') replies: Dragowski blocks to the ground. At the 14 'doubt contact in the area Caceres-Lazzari: Guide lets go. A minute later, Chiesa tries with the left-handed: Strakosha does not tremble. At 22 'biancocelesti ahead: Correa collects Immobile's filter, drinks Dragowski and bags. The goal, initially canceled due to an Argentine offside (which does not exist), is granted by the Guide on the Var report which confirms the regularity of the action. Double round of hands and the viola could sink, but a super-foot parade by Dragowski on Correa himself avoids 0-2. From the possible doubling of the guests, here is instead the equal of Fiorentina (27 '): percussion of Ribery on the left and ball inside for Church that anticipates net Radu and makes center on the first pole.

Shooting. The fundamental advance in Lulic's slip on Lirola is worth a goal on 54 minutes, ready to strike after a perfect low cross by Dalbert. The captain of Lazio then looks for the net with a big blow from the limit: Dragowski repels with his fists (60 '). At 65 'is the time of Ribery, who however' closes' the right-hand shot too much. The attempts of Luis Alberto (77 ') and Castrovilli (80') also failed.

The match seems to have started at par, but at 89 'here's the coup de théâtre, with Immobile who heads the 1-2 with a cross from Jordan Lukaku. Many protests violate a possible initial foul by the Belgian on Sottil: long check with the Var guide and at the end a goal awarded. But it is not over because in the recovery there is still another emotion, with the rigor given to the Biancocelesti for a hands of Ranieri (second yellow card and expulsion) on a close shot by Luis Alberto: from the spot goes Caicedo, who however gets hypnotized by Dragowski (97 ').
