It is no longer a simple, but a real winning formula for Lazio Marco Baroni. The Biancocelesti become great at the end of the match, often thanks to those who come from the bench. Precisely what happened in Lecce, where Adam Marusic found the goal three minutes from the end to make it 2-1 which gave the Biancocelesti three fundamental points. A victory that can make the difference not only in the standings, but also, if not above all, in the minds of a Lazio team that still appeared different from the one seen up until a week ago. The dross of the 0-6 defeat against Inter were there and could be seen, just as the tiredness in some individuals such as Tavares, Zaccagni, Dia and Guendouzi was noticed, all below their very high standards this season. Marusic's goal further increases Lazio's extraordinary numbers in the final stages of the match, starting with the goals from the reserves which, together with that of the Montenegrin, have become ten. From Isaksen's goal on the second day to Marusic's goal yesterday, ten goals that brought Lazio ten more points in the standings.
Lazio, the extraordinary numbers in the last 15 minutes
If we broaden the discussion to the last fifteen minutes of the game, the Lazio they are clearly the best team in Serie A thanks to the thirteen goals scored in the last quarter of an hour. To make the difference clear, Parma is the second best team and has scored almost half of the Biancocelesti's goals (eight). Extending the discussion also to the cups, we must add the three goals scored against Twente, Porto and Ajax which bring the total to sixteen goals in the last fifteen minutes. An average of two goals at the end of the match every three games, statistics that make all the difference in the world for a team that until last year had its weak points on the bench and at the end of the match. In 38 Serie A matches last year, Lazio scored only ten goals in the last 15 minutes out of 49 total, a percentage of just over 20%. This year it is already at 13 and still has to finish the first round, with a percentage that has even doubled compared to last year of 41%. Extraordinary numbers for a Lazio team that is preparing to end 2024 with a bang with a super high-ranking match against Atalanta at the Olimpico.
