The inexperienced Sebastian Otoa made a huge mistake on his Genoa debut when Castellanos released Zaccagni with a deft through pass when play resumed. The referee was forced to issue the red card when the 20-year-old Dane, the final defender, shoved the Lazio captain from behind. The Biancocelesti quickly took advantage of their sizable advantage with one extra player on the pitch. After being released on the left wing, Luca Pellegrini was able to pick up Castellanos with a beautiful cross. The Argentine striker took full advantage of the situation and opened the score with a fantastic scissor kick.
Lazio were then able to dominate the proceedings, and eventually gave themselves a two-goal cushion in the middle of the second half thanks to a brilliant through ball from Rovella that found Dia.
