Lazio and Napoli cancel each other out in goalless draw
Lazio and Napoli played out a goalless draw in their Serie A clash at Stadio Olimpico, a result that does little for either side in the competition.
Lazio had a chance to draw level on points with fourth-placed Atalanta while Napoli missed the opportunity to leapfrog its host.
Neither side could find a breakthrough and had to settle for a 0-0 draw which will not live long in the memory.
Gustav Isaksen missed a presentable early chance for Lazio, which thought it had taken the lead moments later.
Taty Castellanos controlled the ball on his chest before executing a perfect overhead kick and burying the chance, only for the offside flag to cancel out his wonderful finish.
Isaksen and Castellanos then combined, with the latter’s smart flick hooked away by Leo Ostigard when it looked destined for the back of the net.
Napoli saw a Gianluca Gaetano long-range shot fly wide as it struggled to create chances throughout the contest.
