[Serie A] Lazio - Venezia = 1 - 0

Lazio beat Venezia 1-0 in the 2021/2022 Italian league with Ciro Immobile as the hero of the Stadio Olimpico.

Immobile's only goal in the 58th minute gave Lazio a chance to win a ticket to next season's European competition, at least the Europa League. The reason they moved up to the fifth place with 49 points.

As the home team, Lazio immediately showed their ferocity. They appeared to be dominant from the start of the half, with 71 percent of the possession.

Venezia, on the other hand, doesn't look as good either. They also missed two scoring chances. Because of this, there were no goals in the first half.

After the half-time break, Lazio was still strong. They can still control the ball to find the target first, so they can play more freely.

The goal they aimed for in the first 45 minutes was finally achieved in the 58th minute through the Ciro Immobile. VAR sided with the home team after awarding them a penalty after Luiz Felipe was fouled in the box.

Unfortunately, Lazio's efforts to increase the advantage also failed.  They were only able to maintain the position 1-0 until the long whistle sounded after no additional goals were made by both sides.
