Lazio surviving and winning their second game this season after defeating Pescara in the Serie A Week 4 game on Saturday 17 September 2016 at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy at 18:00.
Pescara had the chance to open the score in the 34th minute. Referee Maresca gave a penalty to Pescara conceded by Lazio defender Bastos after a foul on Pescara forward Gianluca Caprari inside the penalty area. The unbelievable happening right after Ledian Memushaj took the penalty spot and failing to convert the penalty delivering a right footed shot to the right missing it!!!!! You bet Memushaj and Pescara fans were disappointed!
It’s Lazio to open the score in the 67th minute delighting their fans at the Olimpico. Midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic defeating Pescara goalkeeper Albano Bizzarri with a headed shot in the top right corner. The assist is by Felipe Anderson with a cross.
Party is for Lazio now. In the 72nd minute, there it comes the second goal of the match following a corner conceded by Pescara defender Cristiano Biraghi. It’s Captain Stefan Radu to score defeating goalkeeper Bizzarri with a headed shot in the bottom left corner. The assist is by Danilo Cataldi.
Lazio just rocking in the second half and crushing Pescara. Finally, the score by Lazio forward Ciro Immobile who was trying all along to score…. Immobile scoring in the 76th minute delivering a right footed shot all the way to the center. The assist is by Keita. Immediate celebration and the party is on.
