Cagliari tries, but it is Lazio who takes the three points at the Domus with a 1-2 victory. Piccoli equalizes Zaccagni's advantage at the beginning of the second half, then Castellanos decides on a defensive inattention of the rossoblù.
Viola had the first shot of the match, a nice left-footed shot from almost thirty meters in the 6th minute, on which Provedel had to dive because it was aimed at the post: he deflected it into a corner. But Piccoli had the initial great opportunity: in the 12th minute Zappa found him from a couple of meters from the goal and his deflection didn't find the goal. On a corner, in the 14th minute, Mina's header was blocked by Provedel .
For a quarter of an hour Lazio is practically never seen near Caprile, then they would score in the 17th minute. Rovella passes to Castellanos, Luperto anticipates him but hits a bad header in Mina's area, who passes it back to Dia and the strange trajectory becomes uncatchable for Caprile, under the crossbar. The assistant raises his flag to signal an offside that is not there, the VAR however cancels it because the Senegalese hit with his left hand and - even if accidentally - a goal cannot be scored like that .
At 35' a throw for Zaccagni on the left, the number 10 would be alone in front of Caprile but instead of trying to lob it into the area he looks for an assist and there is no one in the middle. But he finds the goal at 41', when in the center of the area he slides on a cross from the right by Hysaj and corrects it into the net . Cagliari's defense is stopped, in particular Zappa who does not follow him.
The second half was without changes, with a right-footed shot from Zortea going wide. In the 50th minute, Adopo missed the chance to equalise: freed in the area, with plenty of time to shoot, he shot high with his right foot with too much force. On a cross from Zortea that was too long for Piccoli, Hysaj made a mistake: he gave away a corner that Viola beat, a great trajectory to the far post and Piccoli headed it perfectly, it was the goal for 1-1 in the 55th minute .
