Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Petar Ratkov struck twice as Lazio thrashed Ostia Mare 4-0 in a Club Friendly Games encounter, with Manuel Lazzari’s tireless display earning him the standout rating of 8.71, and the win sets up a meeting with Frosinone on 9 August. The hosts controlled the contest from the first whistle, though the scoreline flattered a disciplined Ostia side who rarely threatened.

Ratkov opened the scoring in the 19th minute and doubled the lead four minutes before the break, Lazzari providing the assist for the second, before Mattia Zaccagni added two late goals in the 73rd and 79th minutes to kill the game off. Ostia’s Riccardo Tonin and Lazio’s Alessio Romagnoli both picked up yellow cards within a minute of each other, but there was no red card drama to shift the flow.

Lazio dominated the numbers, holding 68% possession and earning twelve corners to Ostia Mare’s single effort, but the visitors’ defensive shape kept the score respectable until the final quarter. Manuel Lazzari, a defender, was the standout with his match-high rating of 8.71, though he did not score. With no model prediction available, the result speaks for itself, and Lazio now face Frosinone on 9 August.
