They executed Bayern with Immobile and the spirited Lazio made a qualification step!

If anyone thought that the Lazio will be an easy obstacle for her Bayern Munich in the “16” of the Champions League, he would probably be wrong. This was also proven on the grass of “Olimbiko”, with his team Maurizio Sarri to be extremely set up and block the Bavarians, achieving a great victory with 1-0.

His reckless action Upamecanowho “gifted” the penalty to the home team and also the numerical advantage after being sent off for a tackle on his ankle Isaksenhe also scored the only goal scored by the… historical captain of “Latsali”, Ciro Immobile.

At March 5 the rematch at the “Allianz Arena”, with Bayern to be unwell and to receive one scrabble after another. He is now called upon to show character in order not to say goodbye to the organization so early, with the Lazio to live this great moment until… the next one!

She had absolute control of the match Bayern in the first half and constantly put pressure on the opposing goal, with Lazio to be searched mainly on the counter. Despite this, the Italians were extremely composed on the pitch and did not threaten with great frequency, keeping away from home Provendel especially Harry Kane.

Somehow, with the passage of time and with Lazio having a fast transition, the first opportunity that belonged to his team came Sari in the 22nd minute, with Marusic breaks well to Luis Alberto, he takes a powerful shot, but the ball goes wide!

In the 32nd minute, the Germans missed a great opportunity to open the scoring, with Sane to make a very nice powerful shot, but the ball went just wide of his goal Provendel. A little later, Mr Musiala he found himself in an advantageous position in the area, but his finish went over the bar! And it was also the last phase of the first part, with 0-0 being the result.

With greater audacity she entered the second part Lazio, showing a willingness to claim their chances to get something better than 0-0. They warned in the 48th minute when o Luis Alberto put him in a four-a-four position Isaksenwho however placed on Neuer. Bayern were blocked, couldn’t find spaces to threaten and their circulation was too slow.

This was exploited by the Sarri team which was particularly dangerous in the counter-attacks, resulting in one of them winning a penalty and the numerical advantage: It was in the 67th minute when Immobile broke into Isaksenhe squared but o Upamecano at the same time she found him with the ankle plugs. Penalty, expulsion for the French stopper and o Immobile he didn’t miss from the white bullet for 1-0 in a frenzy at the… hot “Olympic”.

Everything was going like clockwork for his whole Sari, who from the bench lived the game particularly intensely and with great anxiety as always. The two coaches made their moves from the bench, wanting to put their… hand in. Whatever he did Tuchel it didn’t work out for him, having one less football player on the pitch, with the Bavarians not having a phase until the final, falling against the excellent Lazio. In fact, if the hosts were more careful and less chatty in the final third of the pitch, they could have found a second goal. Something that didn’t come, but the 1-0 gives them the lead ahead of the return leg and the Germans have a mountain to climb…

MVP: It would be a shame to single out any Lazio player after this huge over-the-top effort they made on the pitch of the “Olimpico” for one of the biggest victories in the club’s history. That is why we will give the award to the architect of this success, Mr Maurizio Sarriwho gave a recital from the bench, proving that he is a very capable coach.
