Sampdoria Vs Lazio Match Result 3-1, Biancocelesti Records Important Victory At Blucerchiati's Home
JAKARTA - Ciro Immobile scored twice in the first half as Lazio returned to their best with a 3-1 victory over hosts Sampdoria on Sunday that lifted Roma to seventh in the Serie A standings.
Maurizio Sarri's men are under pressure for a result having gone winless in three league games and conceding eight goals in their last two matches following a 4-0 loss to Napoli and a 4-4 draw against Udinese.
But they quickly took control of the game at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris when Sergej Milinkovic-Savic completed a team move by finishing into the bottom corner in the seventh minute.

Immobile scored the Biancocelesti's second 10 minutes later before taking his tally of the season to 13 goals level with Fiorentina's Dusan Vlahovic as the most in the league, with a well-taken shot late in the first half.
Milinkovic-Savic picked up a second yellow card midway through the second half which left Lazio down to ten men and Manolo Gabbiadini scored a consolation goal for the hosts in the last minute.
Lazio equalized with sixth-placed rivals AS Roma with 25 points, but remain behind them on goal difference, while the Blucerchiati are 15th with 15 points.
