Overview
- Sassuolo earned their first league win by beating Lazio 1-0 at the Mapei Stadium with Fadera scoring from close range around the 70th minute.
- An early straight red for Vranckx was downgraded to yellow after a VAR review, and Lazio’s Nicolò Rovella went off with a muscular issue that will require assessment.
- Goalkeeper Muric produced multiple key saves, including a standout stop on Zaccagni, to preserve Sassuolo’s clean sheet in their opponent’s second away loss of the season.
- Milan defeated Bologna 1-0 at San Siro through a 61st‑minute strike from Luka Modrić, who became the sixth 40‑year‑old to score in Serie A and the oldest midfielder to do so.
- A late penalty initially awarded to Milan for a foul on debutant Nkunku was cancelled after VAR, prompting referee Matteo Marcenaro to send off coach Massimiliano Allegri; Milan also lost Mike Maignan and Pavlovic to injuries during the match.
