The goal from the spot that unlocks the match is just the icing on a great first half Valentin Castellanos. The Lazio striker was instrumental in the success against Lecce in the match on Saturday evening. “Illuminating assists for Dia and Isaksen not exploited – writes today's edition of the Gazzetta dello Sport -. Then he goes on his own and Falcone surpasses himself. Then he gets the penalty with two fireballs and scores it”. For Tuttosport it was a “bad day between Jean and Baschirotto. Then the penalty changed his game”.
The opinion of Corriere dello Sport is different: “Very interesting. Pinball boards, heels, a great ball to launch Isaksen, that stop with a turn and a shot. He started the goal action, closed with a penalty. His idea, his the two shots (one saved by Falcone, one by… Guilbert). He also assisted Dia (offside goal)”. This is the comment from TMW: “Return in great style for Taty, who first places himself at the service of his teammates and then plays the role of the protagonist. After a first opportunity that was just missed, at the end of the first half he conquers and then converts the penalty for the lead. Among the best even after the break.”
