The day after Juventus Turin’s short but precious victory against Napoli, the 15th day of Serie A continued this Saturday with a duel between Lazio Rome and Hellas Verona. Remaining on three consecutive victories in all competitions, the team led by Maurizio Sarri was slowed down by conceding a draw against the Venetian team (1-1) at the Marc’Antonio Bentegodi stadium. If Mattia Zaccagni showed the way to his partners by scoring against his former club (23rd), the Frenchman Thomas Henry answered him after returning from the locker room to reset the counters to zero (70th).

A few minutes later, Nicolo Casale thought to give the advantage back to the capital’s players but his goal was ultimately refused for a foul at the start of the action (74th). Despite their numerical superiority following the expulsion of Ondrej Duda (77th), the Biancocelesti were unable to continue their current series and are marking time in the championship on the sidelines of their trip to Madrid to challenge Atlético in the Champions League this Wednesday. As a reminder, if Lazio is already qualified for the next round of the C1 after dominating Celtic Glasgow the previous day, the Italian team will aim for first place at the Civitas Metropolitano in the event of a favorable result.
