Serie A: Lazio Miss Chance To Go Fourth After Draw With Udinese

🅷Lazio missed a chance to go fourth in Serie A when it struggled at home against Udinese to 1-1 on Monday. The Rome club began the night two points behind Juventus in fifth and went a goal down midway through the first half, Florian Thauvin rampaging through the Lazio defense before volleying in from close range after a penalty box scramble. Alessio Romagnoli levelled 10 minutes later. Matias Vecino nodded on a corner kick from the right and the veteran defender appeared at the back post to poke home his first goal of the season.
