Bologna coach Davide Ballardini debuts with a draw after the sacking of coach Stefano Pioli. This might be more a positive sign than negative for Bologna while for Lazio more negative than positive. On paper, Lazio having a stronger squad, yet, unable to defeat Bologna. Forward Miroslav Klose had the chance to open the score when the net was empty and failed. Not good for Lazio because they have not won an away game….. yet… In sum, 1 point better than 0, so for Ballardini is a good start.
