The resumption starts in the same way, with the guests forward and the hosts nonexistent: at 57’ Cataldi hit the post with a right-footed shot from outside the box. At 62’ Provedel blocked the ball with his hands on the line of the penalty area, was initially sent off (and Immobile, who è was on the bench, was cautioned for protesting), but then VAR canceled the decision of referee Di Bello.

On 76’ Vecino tries but Consigli again saves Sassuolo, which on’81’ has its first chance with Thorstvedt, who collects a short deflection from Felipe Anderson and forces Provedel to clear. At’82’ Felipe Anderson’s cross for Vecino who misses the target.

At’89’ Thorstvedt risks an own goal on the development of a corner, Consigli è forced to save on him as well. For Lazio è the second consecutive success, for Sassuolo the third game in a row without success.
