Watch: Atalanta Prevail in Rome as Lazio Rue Their Missed Chances – The Highlights | OneFootball

The official Serie A YouTube channel uploaded the highlights of Saturday’s contest between Lazio and Atalanta, which ended with a 2-0 win for the visitors.

Lazio Fall Short Against Atalanta

Ivan Provedel almost gifted La Dea the opener with a mistimed exit, as he allowed Lorenzo Bernasconi to skip past him and set up Nikola Krstovic, but the latter’s shot was headed out by the brave Oliver Provstgaard. Afterwards, it was the Aquile’s turn to threaten, as Daniel Maldini cut it back to Kenneth Taylor, whose effort was fingertipped by Marco Carneseccchi towards the post.

Atalanta Break the Deadlock From the spot

In the final minutes of the first half, Danilo Cataldi handled the ball while sliding to block Davide Zappacosta’s square ball. The incident occurred inside the box, so the match official pointed towards the spot, and Ederson put the visitors ahead by sending Provedel the wrong way.

After the break, Nuno Tavares thought he had won Lazio a penalty kick for a handball on Zappacosta, but the Portuguese left-back was in an offside position. A short corner-kick almost yielded the equalizer for the home side, but Tijjani Noslin’s header was denied by a superb Carnesecchi save.

Nicola Zalewski Consolidates Atalanta’s Lead

Afterwards, Atalanta doubled their lead through Nicola Zalewski, who found the bottom corner with a sublime effort from the edge of the box. On the other hand, Lazio continued to be hampered by Lady Luck, as Petar Ratkov’s header hit the post, so the final scoreline remained 2-0.
