In a tense and intense Serie A match at the Stadio Olimpico, Lazio and Monza fought an exciting battle that ended in a 1-1 draw. The first goal came from the penalty spot in the 12th minute when Lazio's star striker Ciro Immobile converted a penalty with great skill. The home side were triumphant, hoping to consolidate their advantage. However, Monza had other plans: on 36 minutes Rodrigo Gagliardini equalised with a fantastic strike. The visitors' goal not only levelled the score, but also gave the team's game a sense of urgency and determination. Both teams fought fiercely for the remainder of the first half, and in the 38th minute Monza's Andrea Izzo received a yellow card for a flagrant foul. Just two minutes later, Dani Mota joined his teammate in receiving a yellow card for a similar foul. At the start of the second half, Lazio made three quick substitutions in the 55th minute.

In the 84th minute, Monza made two final substitutions as Alessandro Colpani and Jacopo Akpa Akpro made way for Lorenzo Colombo and Francesco Carboni. In the final minutes of the match, Lazio player Nicola Rovella received a yellow card in the 88th minute, which increased the tension.
