A draw at the Olimpico slips away in the final minutes

Éderson's and Kolašinac's goals weren't enough

Matchday 8 of the 2023-2024 Serie A TIM saw the hosts win 3-2 at the Olympic Stadium in Rome after the Nerazzurri had managed to get a couple of goals back and threatened the equaliser in the final minutes of the match.

The game took a wrong turn from the get-go, as the hosts took an early lead inside 5 minutes when Luis Alberto’s corner ricocheted off De Ketelaere for an unfortunate own goal. Six minutes later, Castellanos then doubled the opposition’s lead assisted by Felipe Anderson. While Musso denied Casale from close range on 14 minutes, Guedonzi’s long-range effort bounced off the crossbar. The Nerazzurri’s reply arrived in the 25th minute when Ruggeri whipped in a cross from the left and Pašalić’s header into the ground bounced off target. However, the goal was only pushed back, as Ruggeri’s lovely cross found Éderson’s free header on 33 minutes to make it 2-1.

A De Ketelaere chance inside the first four minutes of the restart forced a save out of Provedel after the Belgian forward turned two defenders from point-blank range. Atalanta completed the comeback in the 63rd minute from a corner: Ruggeri took the corner short for a Koopmeiners cross that unmarked Kolašinac nodded in. However, an 80th-minute Isaksen free kick went just over before Lazio restored their lead three minutes later through Vecino, whose half-volley went past Musso. Gasperini’s men tried hard until the very end to level the score and in the 90th minute Lookman set up Muriel, who steered the ball into the net, but Provedel managed to smother the effort at the second attempt. That being the final chance of the match, Atalanta came off worse from the Olympic Stadium.
