Very intense match at the Olimpico between Lazio and Bologna. Even before the game, there were plenty of emotions with the entire stadium paying tribute to Ciro Immobile, who was visibly moved and shed tears for his people, with whom he has shared over 300 appearances and 207 goals. There was also a remembrance for Sinisa Mihajlovic with a banner from the Lazio fans.
In a very intense 90 minutes, it ended 1-1 with a thousand emotions: Isaksen opened the scoring in the 38th minute, Odgaard equalized two minutes later. In the second half, it was a Lazio monologue, and Bologna needed a Superman-like Ravaglia to prevent the Biancocelesti from taking the lead on at least four occasions.
Just before the 80th minute, red card for Gila after a hard foul that was initially a yellow. However, the expulsion came for words directed at Fabbri. "You're useless" was reportedly what he said, as noted by Luca Marelli of DAZN.
In the 79th minute, red card for Lazio: Mario Gila made a hard tackle on Castro and received a yellow. Protests and words that Fabbri did not appreciate, and after the yellow, the red card followed.
Lazio was very perplexed. According to Luca Marelli of DAZN, Gila allegedly said "You're useless" twice to Fabbri.
Lazio ran into Ravaglia: another double chance for the Biancocelesti in the 71st and 72nd minutes, with Guendouzi and Noslin both trying, but Ravaglia was unbeatable.
Lazio pushed, and around the hour mark, the Biancocelesti came close to scoring first with Guendouzi and then with Cancellieri. On both occasions, Ravaglia was miraculous.

At halftime, Lazio subbed out Gustav Isaksen due to an adductor problem and brought on Cancellieri.
Lazio called, and Bologna immediately answered. Panoramic pass from Castro, Orsolini set up Zortea, who got past Tavares and shot, hitting the post. The ball fell to Odgaard, who scored into an empty net ahead of Gila.

Lazio made the most of Bologna’s temporary numerical disadvantage and scored in the 38th minute. Casale, who was injured and substituted after the goal, left his team with 10 men while waiting for the change, and Sarri’s team was lethal.

Right-side combination with Guendouzi and Marusic, cross in for Zaccagni, who forced a great save from Ravaglia. On the rebound, Isaksen scored into an empty net.
In the 20th minute, Nuno Tavares took a big risk, late and out of time on Orsolini. The Portuguese player’s challenge was judged as a yellow by referee Fabbri.

The left-back’s foot hit Orsolini’s ankle squarely, and Tavares was not sent off by just a few centimeters. As explained by Luca Marelli of DAZN, if the contact had been higher, an On Field Review for a red card would have been inevitable.
Lazio welcomed its King: Immobile, on his return to the Olimpico, received a worthy welcome, and the emotion was palpable and visible, as well as audible with the chants "Olè, Olè Ciro".
Ciro Immobile makes his return to the Olimpico, this time against his former club! 🤯 #LazioBologna–
Mattia Zaccagni, current Lazio captain, presented Immobile with a Lazio shirt in a display case with attached photos.

The striker from Torre Annunziata was visibly emotional from the start, and as he greeted all the Lazio players, his eyes were filled with tears.

"No one can prevent a people from honoring their history". This was the banner from the Curva Nord for Immobile, with a veiled and inevitable jab, as has been the case for years, at owner Claudio Lotito.
The Maestrelli stand, on the other hand, displayed another banner: “Ciro Immobile, champion and pride of the first team of the Capital”.

The Curva Nord fans displayed a banner for the former defender and coach who passed away prematurely, and his wife, present in the stands, was shown in tears.
