Lazio Beat Genoa 3-0 as Cancellieri, Castellanos and Zaccagni Score

Sarri's reshaped 4-2-3-1 steadied an injury-hit squad through clinical counter-attacks.

Overview

Matteo Cancellieri opened the scoring early, curling past Nicola Leali after a through ball from Taty Castellanos.
Taty Castellanos made it 2-0 from Adam Marusic’s layoff, and Marusic was then forced off injured for Elseid Hysaj.
Ivan Provedel preserved the lead before halftime with sharp saves to deny Mikael Egill Ellertsson and Lorenzo Colombo.
A Genoa penalty given for an Alessio Romagnoli handball was rescinded following a VAR review around the hour mark.
Mattia Zaccagni tapped in the third after a Luca Pellegrini free-kick caused a scramble, and Football Italia later named Cancellieri Lazio’s standout with an 8 rating.
