Italian League Results - Almost Detained by Brescia Draw, Immobile Becomes Lazio Hero

Brescia gave a surprise with Mario Balotelli's goal. However, Lazio equalized after Brescia played with 10 people.

Brescia host Lazio in the 18th Serie A Serie A giornata at the Mario Rigamonti Stadium on Sunday (5/1/2020).

In the standings, Lazio are in third position while Brescia is still struggling in the relegation zone, precisely in position 18.

In the first ten minutes, Lazio tried to threaten by kicking Marco Parolo who could still be blocked by Brescia's defense.

Champion Supercoppa Italiana 2019 returned with an opportunity through Senad Lulic on the 14th minute, but his shot was wide.

Brescia turns to attack and is proven to be more effective.

Getting bait Stefano Sabelli hull, Brescia striker Mario Balotelli separated from the guard Federico Acerbi.

The former Manchester City player immediately shot the ball with half a volley with his left foot.

Lazio goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha did not seem to move when the ball headed into the left corner of the net. The score became 1-0 for Brecia in the 20th minute.

At minute 39 ', Brescia had to play with ten men because Andrea Cistana got a second yellow card.

His offense in the forbidden box gave Lazio a chance to equalize with a penalty on 42 '.

Lazio striker Ciro Immobile then completed his job well and made an equal position 1-1 and held on until the break.

A rain of yellow cards colored the second half, four for Lazio and three for Brescia.

Action seems to end in a draw until Immobile returns to being the host antagonist.

In the 90th minute, the Italian national team striker grabbed his tandem sodoran bait, Felipe Caicedo. The scoreboard was changed to 2-1 for Lazio and lasted until the long whistle sounded.

The victory is certainly very valuable for Simone Inzaghi's squad.

Bitter for Brescia. Defeat makes them not move from position 18.
