Roma 4-3 Lazio

Roma followed up their Champions League victory over Porto by narrowly edging out derby rivals Lazio in a game that swung continually from end to end.
It was Lazio though who went ahead when Giacomo struck an early goal with a left-footed snapshot. Miguel could have made it 2-0 immediately afterwards but he shot wide. Rome attacked next; Filippo played in Michele but he too shot wide. Roma's equalizer was supplied by Guillermo when he followed up a Filippo shot that was saved by Ale C.
But Lazio stole back the lead almost immediately. Riccardo laid the ball nicely back to Giacomo and he blasted the ball home again.
Now Roma started to take over in midfield though. Lorenzo played in Filippo whose shot was saved by Ale. Guillermo passed to Michele and his shot too was saved! But then Michele dribbled into the area, was fouled and tucked home the subsequent penalty: 2-2.
Action continued to swing back and forth. From a kick-out, Edoardo passed to Mikel who flicked the ball onto Riccardo and Captain Ricky blasted home. But Roma equalized again with the best goal of the game: Michele passed to Guillermo and he lifted the ball cunningly over the goalkeeper.
Filippo stole the three points near the end. Lorenzo found Michele on the right; his shot was saved by Ale, but Filippo turned in the rebound from an impossible angle.
BEST PLAYER POINTS: Guillermo 4, Edoardo 4 , Alessandro C 3, Michele 3, Lorenzo 3, Riccardo 1, Mikel 1, Giacomo 1, Filippo 1
