Rossoneri Round Up for Jul 5: AC Milan Beat Lazio 3-0 In Rome To Severely Dent Title Hopes

AC Milan picked up an impressive three points in Rome against Lazio to deal the side their first home loss of the season and to dent their title hopes. Lazio were missing strikers Ciro Immobile and Felipe Caicedo for the game but Milan played an incredible 90 minutes to silence the Aquile.

Calhanoglu hit a screamer for the opening goal after a lay off from Ibrahimovic. The Swede scored off a Saelemaekers cross soon after but the goal was ruled offside. Saelemaekers continued to terrorise the left wing of Lazio and won a penalty which Ibrahimovic converted after Strakosha spilled the ball. In the second half, Rebic was subbed on and continued his stunning form scoring an easy placed goal after Bonaventura picked him out in the box. Milan face Juventus in three days at home, hopefully we see more of the same.
