Final result: Lazio-Porto 2-1

Send 6 – He watches in shock as Vieira’s shot hits the post. First half almost like a spectator, second half more challenging. He can’t do anything on Eustaquio’s position.

Marusic 5.5 – He stops Omorodion by remedying a wrong offside, and is caught from behind by Galen on the occasion of the 1-1 goal. We can do better.

Leg 6 – He gets a yellow card after a few minutes but this doesn’t affect his performance. Physique and experience to counter the dangerous opposing attackers. From 67′ Gila 6 – He came on to avoid Gigot’s red card and to restore calm to a defense shaken by the three changes made by Porto in the 60th minute.

Romagnoli 7 – Omorodion is a difficult customer but he holds his own and even takes the luxury of breaking the deadlock in injury time in the first half. He embellishes the performance with a decisive close at the end on Gul.

Tavares 6.5 – He goes so fast that sometimes his teammates can’t keep up with him. There is no passing through his side, it is a factor every time he attacks at least until the exit of the young Martim Fernandes. Courage and physical strength, a truly important purchase. From ’88’ Pellegrini s.v..

Guendouzi 6,5 – Another great performance. Baroni rotates almost everyone but is unable to give up the Frenchman, a true beacon of this Lazio that is increasingly convincing.

Neighbor 6 – He makes his presence felt in midfield duels and looks for insertion into the opponent’s area, his trademark. Romagnoli anticipated him in the 1-0 lead, he was well placed. Only in the end does he notice the fatigue and greater freshness of the guests.

Goodbye 6 – Some interesting bucking and a lot of work to help Marusic. Overall another good performance, more and more mature. From 67′ Rovella 6 – He comes in with great stimuli and gives oxygen to a struggling midfield.

Pedro 7 – He struggles a bit to find space in the midfield but drags his teammates along with his usual personality. He presses and runs like a kid, incredible physical condition and the champion’s flash in the 92nd minute that drives the Olimpico crazy.

Zaccagni 6 – As always, he is willing, even if haste is often a bad advisor and he gets a little too caught up in the “Latin” atmosphere of the challenge. From 71′ Isaksen 6 – About twenty minutes played in an orderly manner, helping out in the defensive phase.

Castellanos 6,5 – The first chance is his, then a goal is disallowed for a rather obvious offside and at the end of the first half he makes the tower for the captain’s winning shot. Few occasions but always incisive. From 67′ Travel 5.5 – Very few balls touched, his entrance came at the moment of maximum pressure from the opponents. He is unable to be a point of reference for his teammates.

Marco Baroni 7 – Twelve points in 4 games, none like Lazio in the Europa League. It was a sort of back-to-back test to measure the European ambitions of the Biancocelesti, against a strong team used to playing on certain stages. The exam can be said to have been passed with flying colours: he gets the moves right during the course of the game, in the end he invites everyone to attack and is rewarded.
