Lazio takes advantage of the bonus, Rome does not. Wednesday of recoveries in very different colors for the biancocelesti and giallorossi, with the former beating Udinese with a clear 3-0 and they take thus the third place alone, and the seconds that only remedy a draw on the field of Sampdoria, moreover in extremis. The goal of Dzeko at least allows you to avoid defeat but, paradoxically, it hurts even more precisely because marked by him, ever closer to moving at Chelsea by Conte. The risk that this was his last gem is almost a certainty which, with Roma out of the Champions League area no more asterisks in the standings, feeds an increasingly gloomy and pessimistic climate on Eusebio Di Francesco, the real victim (along with the fans of course) of this situation. “These are decisions that are up to society – he has reaffirmed the technician. – I can only say that Dzeko he made himself available to the team and that until lo I will have at my disposal I will let him play”. Also because the convent does not pass large alternative: Schick e Defrel, albeit for different reasons, do not perform according to expectations, Under is still too immature, El Shaarawy and Perotti injured. We therefore understand how the Bosnian is the only real arrow in the bow Di Francesco, which was also confirmed yesterday evening in Marassi. Under at the end first half for a penalty awarded by Orsato with the aid of the monitor (arm of Kolarov but yellow and red protests for a previous foul by Ferrari on Strootman) and transformed by Quagliarella (47'), Roma have repeatedly risked suffering the blow of ko, only to find an equalizer in the final thanks to a header by Dzeko, good at capitalizing on an assist from young Antonucci (91').
A result that leaves Inter in fourth place and allows Lazio to escape +5 in the standings, an almost unthinkable result at the start of the season and fully deserved. At the moment, Inzaghi's team offers the best football in Italy by scoring in succession (56 goals scored, 6 more than Juventus) and running more than anyone else, despite any injury. Yesterday, for example, top scorer Immobile was missing but no one noticed: thanks to Inzaghi, capable of building a team that scores with all the elements available. Against Udinese it was the turn of Felipe Anderson to play the centre-forward, a role not exactly his but played at his best: winning assist to Nani (47') and seal of the 3-0 after a splendid ride (87'). Instead, the match was unlocked by an own goal by Samir (26') testifying to a golden age, in which even the episodes run well. Now there are two very important matches, both against Milan: one in the league (Sunday evening), the other in the Coppa Italia (next Wednesday), which will really tell us what this Inzaghi-branded Lazio can aspire to. “They are jokes of the calendar – the thought of the biancoceleste coach. – They have been healthy since Gattuso has been around they are doing well. I think they are favorites for playing at San Siro but we will go to do our matches, we want to move forward both in the league and in the cup." Lazio laughs, Rome cries: never like now, in short, the capital is literally split in two.
