Game 21, Serie A
Sunday, February 24, 1957
Stadio Olimpico, Rome
Lazio Bologna 3-2
A great game for Lazio thanks to a fantastic match from Selmosson and Muccinelli
After eight games Lazio were last. But once the economic problems were temporarily solved, the team had started to be more concentrated and the Biancocelesti began to climb up the table. They were currently still fourth and had not lost since mid-December.
The match
Lazio played a very practical match faced with a well-organised Bologna. The victory arrived mainly thanks to the splendid performances of Arne Selmosson and Ermes Muccinelli, Bob Lovati’s great saves, Adlemo Eufemi’s long passes and Primo Sentimenti V who ran end to end for the entire game.
Lazio scored their first in the 35th minute. From a corner, a fumble by Bologna keeper Anselmo Giorcelli gave Muccinelli the opportunity to invent an assist for Pasquale Vivolo, two metres from the goal, for Lazio’s first. A minute later, Selmosson got the ball, dribbled past half of Bologna and deposited the ball into the net.
In the second half the Rossoblu tried to put pressure on the Lazio defence and in the 56th minute reduced the deficit with Cesarino Cervellati with a seemingly not irresistible shot from outside the box. But two minutes later a Muccinelli header re-established the Biancoceleste’s double lead.
Bologna reacted but only managed to score in the 83rd minute with a Cervellati penalty, after Umberto Pinardi had fouled him in the area. Selmosson could have put the game to bed but he missed a chance with a few minutes to go.
A great win for the Biancocelesti who were now third.
