The official Serie A YouTube channel uploaded the highlights of the Derby della Capitale, which saw Roma beat Lazio by one goal to nil.
The Biancocelesti had the bulk of the chances in the first half, but couldn’t break the deadlock. On the other hand, the Giallorossi scored from their first real opportunity.
Nuno Tavares was the ultimate culprit as he gifted the ball away inside his own penalty box, allowing Matias Soulé to set up Lorenzo Pellegrini who had the time and space to shoot, and made no mistake from close range.
In the second half, Boulaye Dia was put through on goal. While he managed to beat the Roma defenders for pace, his shot was too high to trouble Mile Svilar. In the final minutes, Reda Belahyane was sent off for a nasty challenge on Manu Koné. Nevertheless, Danilo Cataldi almost found a last-gasp equalizer, but his long-range shot was denied by the post.
At the final whistle, Matteo Guendouzi aggravated Guendouzi’s wounds by earning a red card for dissent, leaving Maurizio Sarri with a completely decimated midfield department.
