🧨 Lazio end winless run, Marusic nets 93rd-minute 2-1, Muric 😱 | OneFootball

In a semi-deserted Stadio Olimpico with fewer than 2,000 in attendance, Lazio wins at the last second and gets 3 points again after more than a month: 2-1 against Sassuolo thanks to goals by Maldini (2') and Marusic (93'), who capitalizes on a mistake by Muric. For a good Sassuolo side, Laurienté's screamer (35') isn't enough.

The two teams take turns controlling the game: Lazio starts well, Sassuolo comes back, and in the final minutes, Sarri's team attacks relentlessly until Marusic's goal, despite debutant Motta in goal taking a risk that he immediately remedies while the result was still in the balance.

Lazio moves up to 37 points and returns to the left side of the table, in 10th place. The Neroverdi see their run of 3 consecutive wins come to an end and remain at 38 points.

💥 Maldini's first goal: 1-0 after 1 minute and 22''

After 1 minute and 22 seconds Lazio takes the lead: Maldini passes to Isaksen, who drives forward from midfield into the box, his shot is deflected by Idzes and the ball lands at Maldini's feet, who dribbles past Garcia and scores into an empty net.

This is Maldini's first goal in a Lazio shirt and also his first goal of the season overall. 

Despite a great season, Sassuolo has the worst score in Serie A in the first 15 minutes of matches: 8 goals conceded at the start of games.

🤯 Laurienté equalizes in the top corner: 4 goals + 2 assists in 4 games

Sassuolo grows into the first half after conceding 6 shots in the first 20 minutes. The 1-1 comes from a combination play on the edge of the box that frees up Laurienté: he controls and shoots in no time, the ball is unstoppable into the top corner in the 35th minute.

The Sassuolo striker is in top form with 2 goals and 4 assists in the last 4 games.

❌ Isaksen's mistake, Motta scare and GOAL Marusic! Muric's exit 😱

In the second half, the teams cancel each other out and chances are scarce. Lazio improves towards the end and tries with Zaccagni (shot saved) and then Isaksen misses a goal in front of Muric: chip too high.

The game opens up and a few minutes later Motta (making his Serie A debut) fails to save a shot from Laurienté but immediately redeems himself on the rebound from Thorstvedt.

Lazio attacks in the final minutes and yet another reckless exit by Muric allows Marusic to score with a header from a Cancellieri cross (who came on in the second half) in the 93rd minute.
