Player Ratings: Bologna 0-2 Lazio – Heroic Motta, Decisive Taylor
Player Ratings: Bologna 0-2 Lazio – Heroic Motta, Decisive Taylor Lazio extended their winning streak to three after beating their hosts, Bologna, by two unanswered goals on Sunday afternoon. Kenneth Taylor was the ultimate star of the show with his second-half brace, but Edoardo Motta had prevented a Rossoblu opener by denying Riccardo Orsolini from the spot. Here are our player ratings for Lazio, who overtook Bologna in the Serie A standings thanks to a 2-0 victory at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara .
Lazio XI (4-3-3) Edoardo Motta – 7. 5 Following his clean sheet against Milan , the young goalkeeper managed to escape unscathed once more. But this time, he had to pull off a fantastic save to deny Riccardo Orsolini’s penalty kick.
While he was the one who committed the foul that resulted in the penalty-kick, it certainly wasn’t his fault. Adam Marusic – 6 The Montenegrin was put through by Isaksen and Dele-Bashiru on three separate occasions in the first half, but lacked the quality in front of goal. Nevertheless, he held his own at the back against Jonathan Rowe and Nicolo Cambiaghi.
Mario Gila – 6. 5 The Spaniard was enjoying a solid outing, but he may have overextended his leg while blocking Rowe’s cross, so his afternoon ended after just 25 minutes. Alessio Romagnoli – 7 The returning defender showcased his leadership qualities by confidently dealing with Santiago Castro.
Nuno Tavares – 6 A mixed bag from the Portuguese left-back, who had some good moments, but also looked shaky against Orsolini and Nadir Zortea. He still has a mistake in him. Fisayo Dele-Bashiru – 5.
