Lazio claiming the bragging rights to rule the City of Rome after defeating AS Roma at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium. A total failure for Roma’s hope to keep up the race for the Scudetto and risking to lose the second position next week. The objective for Roma is focused to remain at least in the second position for the direct qualification to the Champions League next season while for Lazio the hope is to claim a spot at least in the Europa League.
