Lecce thought they had stunned the home side with an early strike, as Riccardo Sottil’s deflected shot wrongfooted Provedel. However, the goal was instantly disallowed for a foul on Isaksen.

Lazio’s first goal came courtesy of a fortunate strike by Mateo Guendouzi, who benefited from a setup by Basic. Guendouzi’s seemingly innocuous shot caught Falcone off guard, slipping into the net to give Lazio a pivotal lead before halftime.

The host secured the maximum three points thanks to Tijjani Noslin’s brilliant goal to the delight of the home supporters.
