Summary: Lazio - Juventus 2: 0 (Sport 1)
Lazio came back from the national team on the left foot, when Leonardo Bonucci scored two penalties and set up Juventus 0: 2 over the Biancocelesti at the Olimpico.
The host had extenuating circumstances, as team star Chiro Immobilia was absent due to injury, but in the meantime the striker has managed to return to the pitches in a particularly surprising role.

To the full article
The team from the Italian capital played a game between the club's staff and players from the Vatican, the tiny country that resides within the city.
The most recognizable resident of the Vatican is of course Pope Francis, known as a die-hard football fan, and ahead of the game he has submitted a surprising and special request: that the referee of the game be none other than Chiro Immobilia.
The striker, who even before the game against the Bianconeri also missed the Italian national team duo that ended with the European champions having to fight for a place in the World Cup through the playoffs, remained true to all pre-match refereeing procedures, including the coin toss.
For the curious, the game ended in a crazy 7: 7.
Lazio striker Ciro Immobile acted as the referee of a recent match between Lazio employees and Vatican XI.

The Italian was requested by Pope Francis to do so.

By the way, Immobilia spoke in his homeland about his recovery from the injury: "My condition is improving, I am progressing day by day. I would play against Juventus if the injury was in another muscle and not in the market. It is a sensitive muscle and it is better not to take a risk. I need more tests. "But do not want to be injured again so have to be patient. Hope to return as soon as possible."
