Lazio Say ’Scusi, Promptly Trounce Auronzo 16-0 in Preseason Friendly

If you’re having a bad day, just remember that at least you’re not the goalkeeper for Italian minnow Auronzo di Cadore.

The big, bad boys from the Serie A came to the little commune of just 3,671 in Italy’s Belluno region today. And Lazio did just what you might expect they might do against a tiny side like Auronzo. They won handily. 16-0. Not a very nail-biting performance.

Senegal international Keita Balde Diao was the man of the match in the dominating display. The Lazio forward, whose contract is up with the Roman side next summer, bagged 6 goals all in the first half (**wink wink** to the scouts out there). 

Lazio might want a bit tougher competition if they’re going to really prepare for the Serie A season but it certainly seems to have been a good bit of entertainment for the fans.
