January 31, 2021The march of Lazio continues, obtaining the fifth victory in a row by beating Atalanta 3-1 at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo.

With this success, Simone Inzaghi's team climbs to 37 points, bypassing the Orobics (to 36) and catching fourth place, occupied by Roma that closes the 20th matchday tonight at the Olimpico against Hellas Verona.



Ready-away and the biancocelesti take the lead: Marusic's right-footed shot from over 20 meters that ends at 'seven' surprising Gollini who, perhaps bothered by the sun, touches, but fails to avoid the goal (3 ').

The match goes in the best way for Simone Inzaghi's team that holds the pitch well and harnesses Atalanta with a very high pressure.

At 31 'Lazio very close to doubling: cross from Immobile, with a header from Milinkovic-Savic that is touched just enough by Gollini to finish his run on the post and bounce back onto the pitch.

At the end of the first half Ilicic 'fishes' in the Zapata area, but his header ends up in the arms of Reina (44').



Lazio doubled in the second half.

Long pass for Immobile who manages to head off for Correa who goes deep, enters the area, jumps Gollini and then deposits on the net for 0-2 (51 ').

Atalanta returns to the game thanks to an invention by Muriel who, with a heel control, 'drinks' half of the opposing defense, then kicks with the left, ball on the pole, but then Pasalic's winning tap-in arrives, 1-2 (79 ').

But the Capitoline in practice 'closed it' immediately after thanks to two newcomers: Pereira serves a golden ball to Muriqi who, all alone, deposits it on the net, it is the 1-3 (82 ').   



Cagliari 1-1 Sassuolo


With a goal to the last breath from Boga, Sassuolo managed to draw 1-1 at Cagliari, who went ahead with Joao Pedro.

Sardinians are always third last, together with Turin at 15 points.

Balanced first half, with chances and without goals at the Sardegna Arena, even if the rossoblùs are very close to scoring with a shot from outside by Nainggolan that bounces on the ground and then prints on the post with Consigli immobile (44 ').



The goals come in the second half.

Sardi took the lead in the 75th minute with Joao Pedro who perfectly 'incorporated' a cross from Marin's right wing.

For the Brazilian it is the number 11 goal in this league.

Then, in full recovery, comes the cold shower for the islanders, skewered in the 94th minute by Boga's volley on the far post.



Crotone-Genoa 0-3


Super shot by Genoa that passes 3-0 to Scida at Crotone.

Ballardini's Ligurians, fourth in a row with 3 victories in the last 4 rounds, are in 13th place, together with Udinese, at 21 points.

For the Calabrians, second knockout in a row, he is increasingly last place, at an altitude of 12. A devastating first half for the Griffin who first goes ahead with Destro entering the area and beating Cordaz (24 ').

The doubling of the Ligurians is almost immediate: Zappacosta's assist for Czyborra who on the fly again beats Cordaz diagonally, 0-2 (29 ').



In the second half comes the trio of Destro who uses a Zajc cross for the winning touch that is worth the brace and his ninth goal in Serie A this year (51 ').
