Serie A: Lazio clinches Champions League place with win over Cagliari

The Hindu  

Lazio claimed a UEFA Champions League place, ending a 13-year absence from the competition, when it came from behind to beat Cagliari 2-1 in Serie A on Thursday following five games without a win. Serie A leading scorer Ciro Immobile netted the winner with his 31st goal of the season as Lazio, fourth with 72 points, clinched the final Italian place in Europe's elite club competition next season. This is something that Lazio haven't achieved for years.” Cagliari forward Joao Pedro scored with a stunning free kick early on but it was disallowed because the referee had signalled it was indirect. However, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic volleyed Lazio level two minutes after the break and, after hitting the post with a shot on the turn, Immobile latched on to Luis Alberto's through ball to slot the winner past Cragno on the hour.
