Game 33, Serie A
Sunday April 24, 1949
Stadio Nazionale, Rome
Lazio Triestina 4-0
Lazio win easily against an ambitionless Triestina with goals from Remondini, Penzo and Nyers
Lazio had started the season badly but with the arrival of Norbert Hofling, the centre forward the team really needed, one could immediately see the difference. Before that match they were joint bottom on 14 points. By today’s match the Biancocelesti had reached 13th place and had a comfortable six point cushion between them and relegation zone.
A win would have been useful to consolidate their position
The match
The game did not have much significance. Triestina were safe and Lazio almost, so it was hoped that the two teams would battle it out. However the only team interested in playing were Lazio. Triestina looked as if they were already on holiday.
Lazio scored early on. In the 12th minute there was a handball in the box and the referee could not do much to avoid indicating a penalty. Leandro Remondini took the spot kick and Lazio went one up.
In the 38th the Biancocelesti scored again. Enrique Flamini gave an excellent assist to Romano Penzo to make it two.
In the second half in the 59th minute there was a free kick for Lazio. Remondini with his usual thunderous shot made it 3-0 for Lazio.
The last goal of the day was scored by Ferenc Nyers II in the 80th minute after a one-two with Norbert Hofling.
An easy win for Lazio.
