Lazio's attack gained momentum after that, and they created two promising chances just before halftime. Toma Basic had a golden opportunity but fired wide from close range after Mattia Zaccagni's excellent work down the left wing. Zaccagni himself then had a chance to redeem himself but sent Manuel Lazzari's low cross wide of the post from a similar position.




The visitors' goalkeeper, Elia Caprile, made a stunning save to deny Adam Marusic's curling effort from the left corner of the box, tipping it around the post. Despite the pressure, Juventus held firm and even had a chance to take the lead late in the half. Sebastiano Luperto's effort was blocked by Mario Gila, keeping the score at 1-0 in Lazio's favor.
