Lazio fined after Coppa Italia match

Following the first four matches of the round of 16 of the Italian Cup, the Sports Judge Alessandro Zampone, assisted by Stefania Ginesio and AIA representative Carlo Moretti, did not find in the reports the extremes for the disqualification of players, coaches or managers, but ordered a fine of 6 thousand euros against Lazio, victorious on Thursday evening against Napoli (3-1 the final result), explaining the reason in the note released by Lega Serie A.

The biancoceleste club è was sanctioned, the note reads, "for having its supporters, during the first half, twice intoned a boorish chorus towards the supporters of the opposing team; for having also, during the match, thrown a smoke bomb and some small plastic objects of various kinds in the playing area; penalty mitigated ex art. 29, paragraph 1 lett. b) CGS".

As far as Lazio itself is concerned, for protests against the referee, Mattia Zaccagni (who, as captain, will also have to pay a 1,500 euro fine) and Elseid Hysaj were sanctioned with a warning (first sanction). For misbehavior, Robin Gosens of Fiorentina, Armando Izzo of Monza, Luca Marianucci and Giuseppe Pezzella of Empoli, Rafa Marin and David Neres of Napoli, Cas Odenthal and Yeferson Paz of Sassuolo, as well as Filippo Terracciano of AC Milan also received the first penalty of the tournament.

All of the players listed, in fact, received a yellow card during their respective Coppa Italia engagements, which, in addition to Lazio’s success over Napoli, saw the qualification to the quarterfinals of Bologna (4-0 to Monza), Milan (6-1 to Sassuolo) and Empoli (4-3 on penalties against Fiorentina after a 2-2 draw in the 90').
