Milan lost the “Olimpico” – Lazio was left with… eight players!

Big step in trying to stamp a ticket for it Champions League of the following season did the Milan!

In an epic derby at the Olimpico, Stefano Pioli’s team escaped with a great double (1-0) and firmly established itself in its third position Serie A.

After a mediocre first half, the Rossoneri recovered numerical advantageWhen the Pellegrini pushed Pulisic in the 57th minute and (amid loud protests from the home side) saw second yellow.

So after crowding the Romans, they managed to find the coveted goal at 87′by Okafor to take advantage of unrest in the area and to beat with shots Provendel.

From there, all that followed was… kick patinaas the home team, enraged by the refereeing, lashed out at their opponents.

And they didn’t just lose the match, but two more players in the delays, when the were also expelled Marusic and Geduzi.

Thus, Lazio remained far from the European places, while Milan were closing in on distance breathing the second Juventus (which in fact has to face Naples Away).
