Scorers: Hysaj 4′, Milinković-Savić 37′, 89′; Galdames 54′, Lazzari (own goal) 58′

Lazio opened the scoring after just four minutes through Elseid Hysaj, who finished cooly after some lovely work from both Luis Alberto and Ciro Immobile.

They remained dominant for much of the opening half hour but despite having near 70% of the ball, could not find a second goal.

That second goal did come in the 37th minute via Sergej Milinković-Savić, who marked what could be his final home game for the club with a great goal.

Despite being on top for most of the game, Lazio’s lead evaporated in the space of four minutes just before the hour mark. The 54th minute saw Pablo Galdames give Cremonese hope before Manuel Lazzari’s own goal in the 58th minute drew them level.

Lazio got out of jail with just a minute left to play, Milinković-Savić grabbing his second and putting Lazio back into second in the table.

It proved to be the winner at the end of a topsy-turvy encounter.
