Provedel saves Lazio’s incredible 95th minute goal

Lazio-Aletico Madrid 1-1

Incredible Champions League debut of Lazio, able to snatch a last-gasp draw with the least expected protagonist, goalkeeper Provedel.

In the first round of Group E, Maurizio Sarri’s team thus drew with Atletico Madrid 1-1 at the end of a drawn and balanced match against the toughest opponent in the group. 

After the goal of Barrios (29') in the first half with the complicity of a deflection of Kamada, it was precisely the biancoceleste goalkeeper in the recovery to put everything back in balance at 95' header on a perfect assist from Luis Alberto.

Earlier, a good Milan did not go beyond a 0-0 against Newcastle in their Champions League debut. At San Siro è ended in a deadlocked draw with the Rossoneri also losing Loftus-Cheek and Maignan to injury.
