In a highly anticipated Serie A match at the Stadio Olimpico, Lazio faced their rivals from Torino. In the match, both teams gave their all to earn three points, but Torino won with a score of 0-1. The game got off to an unhurried start, but picked up pace as the first half went on. Torino's C. Linetti was given a yellow card on 25 minutes, but the team quickly made up for it. Shortly before the end of the first half, I. Ilich scored a spectacular goal to make the score 0-1 in favor of Torino. In the second half, Lazio began to attack to even the score. However, the team was interrupted by the fact that A. Romagnoli got a yellow card in the 48th minute. Lazio tried to restore the balance but they were unsuccessful. In the 54th minute, Lazio made two quick substitutions: Pedro replaced C. Immobile and M. Vecino replaced M. Antonio.
