The Biancocelesti were in their pre-season training period at Auronzo di Cadore. Today was their second friendly against Dekani from the Slovenian second tier.

The match

In the 12th minute Lazio had a chance as Manuel Lazzari was fouled in the box and the referee gave the first penalty of the day. But Ciro Immobile kicked the ball wide. The Biancocelesti struggled a bit to find the right geometries, but once they did they scored five.

In the 33rd minute, corner for Lazio taken by Luis Alberto. Felipe Anderson headed the ball towards the goal, great save from the keeper but Immobile with an acrobatic volley made it 1-0.

Five minutes later splendid Immobile-Sergej Milinkovic-Savic one-two stopped by a handball. Pedro took the spot kick and made no mistake. Towards the end of the half, Milinkovic-Savic to Lazzari in the box on the right, cross towards the far post and Pedro headed it in.

For the second half, Maurizio Sarri put in a totally new eleven and Lazio scored another two. In the 50th minute Mattia Zaccagni to Toma Basic who made no mistake. In the 80th minute Marcos Antonio to Zaccagni in the box. Foul, another penalty which the Lazio winger deposited into the back of the net.

Good indications for Sarri even though it was only the second game.
