THE MATCH
And so too the last Italian of the race greets the Champions League. Nothing unexpected after the 1-4 at the Olimpico in the first leg, but Lazio at the Allianz Arena also failed the appointment with the test of pride against the super champions of the Bayern. Too slow to worry the Bavarians, the modest intensity put in by Simone Inzaghi’s team seemed somehow already resigned by some choice in the starting eleven with Muriqi and Escalante thrown into the fray somewhat surprisingly.
A challenge, that of the slight snowfall in Munich, which never took off from the point of view of the battle, given to the dribbling of Bayern from the beginning in search of a restart exploiting the shores of the Kosovar attacker who practically never arrived. Avoiding another shipment seemed to be the dictation of the Biancocelesti who arrived at Nubel only when the quality men, Luis Alberto, Correa and Milinkovic-Savic they managed to think with the ball at their feet and think about the game; translated, once, at 15 ‘with the usual attendance of the Asturian for the Serbian midfielder – captain for the occasion – imprecise head. Bayern took care of the rest, dangerous with a Lewandowski already at the beginning and with Sané after a mistake by Correa, one of the many Lazio players under pressure from the Bavarians. The Pole, however, found the lead goal in the 33rd minute from the penalty spot after Muriqi’s naive hold on Goretzka in the development of a corner kick.
In the second half the game script did not change, on the contrary, with Lazio always well hidden in their own half and behind the line of the ball waiting for the Bavarians. Bayern but less angry than usual at his offensive men, close to scoring with Lewandowski On the “assistance” of Milinkovic-Savic, but not very generous and lucid when it comes to serving his best-placed teammates in the area. Not bad for a game that quickly turned into a kind of attack-against-defense in which the quality of Lazio’s center-backs and the technique of Flick’s attacking midfielders were exalted, with the post that saved Reina from the double of Lewandowski prior to Choupo-Moting duplication a few minutes after entering the field. In the final, Lazio saved the honor with Parolo Network Looking ahead to the news of a free kick by Pereira.

REPORT CARDS
Muriqi 5 – Having one of the few chances as a starter at the Allianz Arena shouldn’t be the best, but after a good start to make the body count in the contrasts, he disappears in the offensive phase. It is reviewed in its own area, but causing the penalty on Goretzka.
Milinkovic-Savic 5.5 – His quality should raise Lazio’s technical level in midfield, but on a couple of occasions he risks assisting Lewandowski with poorly calibrated passes. Lose your head in the first half.
Strap 5 – As the teammate tries to give quality to the maneuver, but often finds himself playing alone, trying plays for his own good. Create an opportunity for Bayern with a useless veil, then also draw a yellow for the simulation.
Lewandowski 6.5 – The card is stamped upon winning the eleven-meter duel against Reina. In the second half he throws a couple of excellent attacking situations into the wind, but he always knows how to be prepared in the area. The mail denies her the corset.
