Milinkovic-Savic saves late point for Lazio against Lecce

Date:

Sergej Milinkovic-Savic snatched a last-gasp point for Lazio with his stoppage-time leveller in Friday’s 2-2 draw with Serie A strugglers Lecce.

Trailing from early in the second half to two goals from Remi Oudin, Lazio grabbed a point in the 94th minute thanks to Milinkovic-Savic’s header, which trickled into the Lecce net.

Maurizio Sarri’s side are third in Italy’s top flight after winning one of their last five matches, conceding second spot to Juventus.

From appearing certain to qualify for the Champions League, Lazio are now looking over their shoulders in the race for the top four spots.

They are four points ahead of fifth-placed Milan, who travel to Spezia on Saturday. Inter Milan can take third with a home win over Sassuolo.

Milinkovic-Savic’s equaliser was devastating for Lecce.

With three matches left in their season they are five points above Spezia who sit just inside the relegation zone.
