ROMA (March 9, 2026) (Interstat) — Adam Marušić scored in second-half stoppage time to give Lazio a 2-1 victory over Sassuolo in a Serie A match Monday at Stadio Olimpico.

Daniel Maldini opened the scoring for Lazio in the second minute. Sassuolo’s Armand Lauriente, who entered as a substitute, equalized in the 35th minute and assisted on the opening goal. Marušić’s decisive strike came in the 92nd minute, assisted by substitute Sebastian Walukiewicz.

The result defied a pregame projection of a 1-1 draw, though statistical models heavily favored Lazio. The match featured 10 yellow cards. Lazio begins its league campaign with a win, while Sassuolo starts with a loss.
