22 December 2019In Saudi Arabia, Lazio celebrate the fifth Italian Super Cup: as two weeks ago in the league (3-1 at the Olimpico), Juve beaten 3-1 again, who was chasing the ninth triumph instead.Nice first half in Riad: fast, intense and with excellent geometries by both teams. The Biancocelesti start better, dangerous in the 8th minute with the low hit of Luis Alberto and in the goal in the 16th minute just with the Spaniard, who closes in goal a splendid action born on the wing with Lulic and finished by Milinkovic-Savic. The Bianconeri take a few minutes to tidy up their ideas, then start showing up: Ronaldo's powerful but wide conclusion (22 '), Dybala's free-kick punched out of a whisker (31'). Lazio have another chance with Correa (33 '), whose diagonal is neutralized by Szczesny, before the break, however, the draw comes: Ronaldo's left-handed hit from the edge, Strakosha rejects diving, for Dybala (kept in play by Radu ) marking is like drinking a coffee.
Shooting. Dybala tries a left foot right after a CR7 strike: half a meter wide ball. Correa answers from head to corner, but once again there is no precision. In the wheel, the sudden lightning bolt of Ronaldo hisses near the intersection (71 '). Then Lazio, until then more wait-and-see, strikes again: cross by Lazzari and spied on by Parolo on the second post for Lulic, who hits the center with a precise flat on the fly (73 '). At 82 ', on the counterattack, Inzaghi's team also drops the set with Correa, but Calvarese cancels for an offside of the Argentine. Useless the final forcing of Juve, which produces only a detachment of Bonucci who shaves the wood (90 '). Indeed, the Biancocelesti, with a very fast restart in recovery (93 '), wasted a very occasional match with Correa, stopped in length by a Szczesny reagent. But the question does not end here, since at the last second the newly entered Cataldi, with a fantastic free-kick from the edge, signs the final 3-1 (94 ').
