Immobile, however, missed an easy chance minutes before the Belgians’ equalizer in the second half and Charles De Ketelaere came inches close to scoring a last-gasp goal, but his shot blasted the ball against the underside of the crossbar.

As per Tuttosport, Luis Alberto was the MVP of Lazio-Club Brugge: “He is the one who organized the counterattacks, Correa steered inside the net his deflected shot to give Lazio the lead.”
