The best Italian performers on matchday 22 according to the media
Three crucial attacking performances feature in our regular column, dedicated to Serie ATuesday, February 4, 2020
Ciro IMMOBILE (G 8; C 9; T 8,5) Lazio 5-1 SPAL
Devastating, relentless, inescapable. Any adjective will have already been used dozes of times to describe this goal machine but seeing him continue to ravage oppositions defences is really the only way to comprehend his ability. He picked up two goals and an assist in this match. Scary numbers.
Francesco CAPUTO (G 7,5; C 7,5; T 7,5) Sassuolo 4-2 Roma
A third brace of the season and another step forward in his resurgence in the last two months. In little more than a quarter of an hour he delivered two knockout blows to Fonesca’s Giallorossi team. It’s a shame that he was denied a hattrick through no wrong-doing on his own behalf, as it would have been the icing on the cake.
Manuel LAZZARI (G 7,5; C 8; T 7) Lazio 5-1 SPAL
He performed at a high level for SPAL, but he had no qualms against scoring against his former team. He thrives on the right side of Inzaghi’s tactical chessboard. Only the post came between him and a goal, but that was the closest anything or anyone came to stopping him during that match.
