What a blow for AC Milan! Lazio battled at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium against AC Milan crushing them with a smacking 4-1. The game started an hour late due to heavy rain. It’s a major step back for Milan on their quest to remain in the top 3 positions. Lazio forward Ciro Immobile scoring a perfect hat-trick. Immobile not only taking the ball “as a souvenir,” but also having the record to score his first hat-trick as a Lazio player. The other goal was by Luis Alberto scoring his first goal  at the Olimpico. Well, AC Milan will have to regroup and prepare to get back to the winning path. A nightmare for AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The first goal of the match arrives in the 38th minute following a penalty.  Referee Rocchi gives a penalty to Lazio conceded by AC Milan Franck Kessié following a foul on Luis Alberto inside the penalty box.  The one-on-one moment is between Lazio forward Ciro Immobile and goalkeeper Donnarumma.  Immobile set the tone of the match by converting the penalty with a right footed shot  despite Donnarumma attempting to save in the bottom left corner.   Nothing to do… the ball went inside the net…. party for Lazio fans started.
