Lazio call girl in Marassi – Il Tempo

Lazio revisits Europe, passes to Marassi against Genoa, wins the fourth match of the last five of the championship and takes virtual sixth place in a ranking with too many asterisks to deceive. Luis Alberto’s magic gives three important points and the feeling that the group hasn’t given up and still wants to try to save the season.
So we start with the downgraded Spanish magician: no captain’s armband which is taken by Marusic. . Luis Alberto plays with Felipe, also starting, behind Castellanos, confirmation for all eleven who took to the field in the last match at the Olimpico. Genoa with some excellent defections (Bani and Messias above all) but with the push of Marassi full of enthusiasm for the excellent season of the rossoblu.
Unwatchable first half, slow paced, with little desire to create play. Everything was wrong, three corners in favor that launched Genoa’s counterattacks, not a single shot on goal (but it’s nothing new regardless of the coach on duty), players walking around on the pitch, everyone. Kamada, Anderson and Luis Alberto try to understand Tudor’s instructions but the maneuver doesn’t take off. Retegui shoots high, Vazquez wastes in the melee, Casale launches Ekuban who misses the winning diagonal. In the middle, Lazzari’s calf problem forces Tudor
Without sweating too much, Genoa goes to the break with many regrets for the modest 0-0. But in the second half, there is another Lazio (Romagnoli comes on for Casale): he doesn’t steal the eye but begins to grind down the opponent and is immediately dangerous with Luis Alberto who commits the goalkeeper Martinez in a deflection for a corner. The game turns with Felipe who comes close to taking the lead and then invents the winning play in the 67th minute: he assists the kiss for Kamada, the Japanese comes in and serves up the three-point goal to Luis Alberto (intelligent pass from Vecino).
The goal gives Lazio wings, Tudor brings in Pedro and Cataldi (Castellanos and Felipe come out), Gilardino responds with Ankeye, Sabelli, the former Badelj and Thorsby. In the final minutes also for Rovella who comes on in place of the best player on the pitch: Luis Alberto, Tudor’s team closes behind but never risks and brings home a precious success.
Now Tuesday against Juve to try to make a comeback and an Italian Cup final which would give another flavor to the season. Then Verona at the Olimpico to continue to rise in the championship: complicated commitments and Tudor hopes to recover some senators who have been in the pits for too long. Provedel, Zaccagni, Guendouzi and Immobile can give Lazio a further boost. Who needs everyone in these last races who can help restore a decent ranking to the team that finished in second place in 2023.
