Lazio 4-0 AC Milan's poor run of form continued on Tuesday with a 4-0 defeat to Lazio in Rome, leaving the Rossoneri 12 points behind Serie A leaders Napoli.
Lazio took an early lead thanks to Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, and Mattia Zaccagni doubled their lead before the break.
Milan came out firing in the second half, but in the 67th minute, Pierre Kalulu was penalized for a foul in the box, and Alberto stepped up to score from the spot, ensuring that the points stayed in Rome rather than heading north.The introduction of players like Divock Origi, Alexis Saelemaekers, and Charles De Ketelaere earlier in the half had no effect on the Diavolo, and Pioli must have felt that he lacked firepower from the bench when his team needed it.
The rout was completed in the second half by Luis Alberto's penalty and Felipe Anderson's strike, extending Milan's winless streak in all competitions to five games.
The impressive performance of the Biancocelesti propelled them to third place, one point behind Milan but ahead of Inter Milan and Roma on goal difference.
