Bad luck for Cagliari conceding a penalty in the 22nd minute by defender Luca Ceppitelli also getting a yellow card after a foul on Lazio forward Ciro Immobile inside the penalty box. It is Immobile, himself, to take the penalty spot and there you go converting it with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner.
