Azzurri forced out of numerical inferiority for more than half an hour due to the red aimed at Ricci. The pace of the match is not particularly high and the first real scoring opportunity happens to the hosts in the 19th minute, with Luperto trying to be left-handed from a few meters, being providentially walled up by D'Ambrosio to Handanovic beaten.

Lazio returned to victory by beating Fiorentina 1-0 with Pedro's decisive goal at the beginning of the second half, thus erasing the bad figure of Verona and relaunching the

their European ambitions in the direct confrontation with the Viola pushing them back in the standings. The first fraction thrives on flare-ups with the men of Sarri to seek the way of the network with greater insistence and those of the Italian to act as a remittance. The first real chance arrives at minute 12 with Pedro's heel for Luis Alberto who serves Immobile; the attacker enters the area and kicks, not finding the mirror of the goal. Whoever finds it instead, the door, is Lazzari at the end of the first half with a nice right from the edge on which Terracciano is good at relaxing by deflecting the ball destined for the net. In the middle, little or nothing with the Viola to be seen forward only thanks to a header by Vlahovic who, however, only tickles the Lazio rearguard.

The second half opens with the conclusion of Torreira svirgolata from the edge, but it is Lazio who find the advantage with Pedro who, served by Milinkovic-Savic, finds the seven with the left, striking Terracciano. The conceded network wakes Fiorentina which begins to take the field with Lazio which limits itself to act as a throw-in, leaving room for the purple initiatives. Sarri's men, however, do not give up on offending and in one of the offensive gusts it is Immobile who sows panic in the area by putting the ball in the middle, but none of his teammates shows up for the appointment with the winning tap-in. In the final, Fiorentina tries everything, but Lazio, despite some suffering, holds up well the purple shock wave by winning 3 useful points to regain victory and get out of the mini crisis while Fiorentina leavesOlympic without points, but with some more certainty.

Tomorrow evening the conclusion of the tenth day with the postponement Napoli-Bologna.
