The seventh goal of the season of the usual

opens the dispute of Penzo: the former Barcelona after 3 'starts from the right, cuts to the edge of the area and hits the near post with his left. Zanetti's team does not lose the thread of the game, continues to build from the bottom and the percentage of successful passes for both teams is over 90%. But in the 28th minute the Venezia risks big: Ceccaroni loses the ball, Felipe Anderson leads the counterattack and serves Basic who misses the stop before the shot and gets back on top. At the stroke of half an hour of play comes the equalizer: Aramu's cross from the right and

.

But in the second half Lazio returned to the lead and did so with a corner kick always after 3 ': treacherous corner by Cataldi,

touches his shoulder and beats Romero. Zanetti runs for cover and sends Busio and Okereke to the field in place of Vacca and Kiyine. Many warnings from the referee Maresca: Luiz Felipe is the first, then it's also up to Pedro, Basic and Crnigoj. The latter in the 67th minute is the sacrificed to make way for Tessmann while Sarri's first change is Lucas Leiva for Cataldi. Balanced ball possession for the two teams who are struggling to look out from the parts of Romero and Strakosha. Above all, Venice lacks quality in the last pass: at 78 'Sigurdsson breaks through on the right but misses the assist for the rushing Johnsen.

In the final, Acerbi hurts his flexor but Sarri has run out of slots and the defender grits his teeth in attacking position. At 90 'Venice opportunity: Mazzocchi finds Ebuehi in the area, but Milinkovic-Savic sweeps his head.

The hosts start better and at 7 'go immediately one step away from the advantage with Scamacca, who tries the right diagonal hitting a post later an imperceptible but providential parade by Skorupski. The neroverdi seem to be in control, but in the 36th minute the rossoblùs take the lead with

Close to the interval, Bologna also found a doubling with a marvel from

, who shoots right from the edge on Skov Olsen's low cross.

In the second half, Mihajlovic's team continues to push and touches the trio again with Hickey, while in the 69th minute Skorupski also takes the chair who performs a miracle on the left-handed around Berardi, preventing Sassuolo from shortening the distance.

In the final, Bologna would have a couple of chances to close it definitively with Barrow, but the Gambian spoils them first by kicking badly, then letting Pegolo hypnotize him face to face.
