SERIE A 2011 / 2012 MATCHDAY 38

LAZIO 3 VS INTERNAZIONALE 1

Lazio: Bizzarri, Scaloni, Diakite, Biava, Konko, Cana, Ledesma, Candreva (92’ Zampa), Mauri (93’ Garrido), Lulic (83’ Gonzalez), Kozak.

Inter: Castelazzi, Maicon, Lucio, Samuel, Nagatomo, Zanetti, Cambiasso, Poli (76’ Longo), Alvarez (61’ Pazzini), Guarin, Milito.

The last fixture had been passed successfully! Yes, Lazio brought a glory to all Laziale that attended Olimpico Stadium last night. Three goals from Libor Kozak, Antonio Candreva and Stefano Mauri became the Lazio's last goals of the season.

In the end of first half, Lazio had been left behind by the guest team after Diego Milito scored a goal from penalty spot. The referee gave a penalty kick for Inter after Ledesma did a bad bad bad tackle to Maicon in the penalty area.

But, Ledesma paid his error with one assist to Libor Kozak through a corner kick in minute 59. That was the equalizer goal for Biancoceleste. The young striker celebrated his goal with minimalist emotion. His role to replace Klose's position gave him another goal in Serie A this season.

In this match, I was really immpressed with both Candreva and Lulic movements on the field. The two players are the best players of Lazio last night! Just four minutes after Kozak's goal, both of them cooperated to create the second goal for Lazio. Lulic run on the left side area and succeed to pass through Maicon and He sent the ball to Candreva on the centre area. Amazing! Candreva shot the ball into the Castelazzi's net.

Mauri and Candreva -the third goal-

Il Capitano Stefano Mauri completed Lazio's glory last night with his goal in the added times. So, the score turned to 3-1 for the home team. Nerazzurri continued to attack in the last minutes, but forget the Lazio defense who successfully exploited to score the third goal. Mauri successfully deceive Castellazzi after working together nicely with the Kozak. Then  Mauri expressed his emotion to the Curva Nord to celebrate with all of Laziale.

With this victory, Lazio get the fourth positionon the last standings of Serie A this season, because Udinese won over Catania. Fail to get the last ticket to Champions League next season. But, Europa League is not bad. Lazio finally can join a European championship next season after some of the issues affected the team throughout the season.

Wrong manuever in winter mercato by the management and endless catastrophic injuries that affected several Lazio players had caused the inconsistency of Lazio's performance. Without the problems, I think that Lazio deserved better position on the last standings. So, we need to thanks the coach Edy Reja for his hard work and of course for the players who have struggled throughout the season.


GRAZIE!! ^_^
