In a season in which neither Inter, Milan or Juventus have achieved big results, Lazio are looking to seize the opportunity to return to the UEFA Champions League. With a great win over Spezia, the team from the Italian capital consolidated its second place in Serie A.

Although Ciro Inmobile opened the account from the penalty spot, it was the Brazilians Felipe Anderson and Marcos Antônio who took center stage with their goals for the final 3-0.

Felipe Anderson and Marcos Antônio score to consolidate Lazio

Felipe Anderson completed a nice collective maneuver to stamp the partial 2-0 after 52 minutes. Marcos Antônio, despite having entered at the end, was able to leave his mark on the match with a great individual play.

At sheer speed, the midfielder took advantage of a rebound in his own half to head into the rival area, where he eluded goalkeeper Bart Dragowski to comfortably score the final 3-0. It was his first goal for Lazio, a team he joined from Shakhtar Donetsk this season.
