Immobile and Cataldi are not enough, Sarri eliminated- time.news

Many opportunities for the Biancocelesti, but in the end Conceicao’s team passes. You will be out of Europe

Immobile joins Inzaghi, his coach until a few months ago, among the best European scorers in the history of Lazio with 20 goals; Cataldi reaches Porto in the 94th minute, avoiding an undeserved defeat. But these two successful pursuits are not enough: Sarri also comes out of the Europa Leagueafter being eliminated from the Italian Cup, and now has only the championship – starting with Sunday’s clash with “his” Napoli – to make sense of the season.

Yet Lazio remain in the game until the end, although the Porto setters often force them to act on the counterattack. Except that this time, compared to the first leg, there is Immobile, extraordinary even though he comes from 7 days of isolation. In the first half he scores three goals, but two are offside; the good one is favored by a serious mistake by Pepe, who loses the ball in open defense. It seems like a turnaround evening, after the 2-1 in Porto, until Milinkovic-Savic gives away a penalty with a useless foul on Taremi. And there the game changes. Conceicao’s team (which makes the catwalk, acclaimed, under the Lazio curve) is more dangerous and in the middle of the second half goes back to scoring with a spectacular Taremi-Uribe play. The biancoceleste assault brings many opportunities and the 2-2. Curiosity: Pedro played, who according to Sarri could not be cured because cortisone entered among the doping substances. Maybe he wasn’t indispensable.
