A double from Percy Tau and a third goal from Kahraba handed Al Ahly a runaway 3-0
Lazio was able to salvage a point against Serie A strugglers Lecce, thanks to a stoppage-time goal from midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. The match ended in a 2-2 draw, with Lazio coming back from being down two goals early in the second half.
Milinkovic-Savic's late equalizer came in the 94th minute, as he headed the ball into the Lecce net, securing the much-needed point for his team. The draw puts Lazio in third place in the Serie A standings, but they are now looking over their shoulders in the race for the top four spots.
Lazio's recent form has not been impressive, as they have only won one of their last five matches. They conceded second place to Juventus, and are no longer certain to qualify for the Champions League. Milan, who are in fifth place, are only four points behind Lazio, and will travel to face Spezia on Saturday. Inter Milan can take third place if they win their home match against Sassuolo.
Milinkovic-Savic's goal was a significant blow to Lecce's season, as they are only five points above Spezia, who are hovering just above the relegation zone, with three matches left to play.
Lazio Struggles Continue
Despite being one of the top teams in Serie A, Lazio has been struggling to find their form in recent matches. They have won only one of their last five games and have conceded important points to their rivals.
Maurizio Sarri's side has shown inconsistencies in both defense and attack, which has contributed to their poor run of form. Lazio's forwards have not been able to find the back of the net, with the exception of Ciro Immobile, who has scored 19 goals in the league this season.
In contrast, Lazio's defense has been leaking goals, which has cost them dearly. They have conceded 45 goals in 35 league matches, the second-highest in the top five, after Torino. Lazio has conceded crucial points in matches where they were leading or tied, which has put them in a precarious position.
With only three matches left to play, Lazio needs to turn their fortunes around if they want to retain their position in the top four. They must address their defensive frailties and find ways to score goals. Sarri must motivate his players to perform at their best in the remaining matches, as any slip-up could cost them their place in the Champions League.
