An eerily empty "Olimpico", with only a few thousand spectators coming despite a major boycott against Lazio president Claudio Lotito...

And finally, a little celebration for the crowd at the Roman temple of football - thanks to Adam Marušić.

The Sky Blues defeated Sassuolo 2-1 to end a four-match winless streak, with the Montenegrin ace scoring in the second minute of stoppage time.

He did it with his head even though his back was turned to the opponent's goal, which is guarded by former goalkeeper of our youth team Arijanet Murić, now goalkeeper of Kosovo..

It was Marušić's 16th goal in a Lazio shirt, the first of this season that everyone at the club from the Eternal City wants to forget as soon as possible.

Lazio led from the 2nd minute when Daniele Maldini scored, and Sassuolo equalized in the 35th minute through Armando Loriente.

Later in the game, both teams had chances to take a 2:1 lead, with Marušić converting the last chance of the game into three points for Maurizio Sarri's team.
