Lazio's 6-2 win at Sassuolo was decided by attack, chaos and a ratings sheet full of standout figures. Mattia Zaccagni posted the highest mark of the night at 9.53, Tijjani Noslin followed with 8.83 after his brace, and Gustav Isaksen added 8.59 after driving the first-half burst.

Lazio's attacking ratings

Zaccagni was the clear outlier. His 9.53 rating sat above Noslin's 8.83 and Isaksen's 8.59, and Lazio's best attacking players all landed in the kind of range that tells you the game was being played on their terms for long spells.

Noslin's two goals came in a match that produced six for Lazio, and Isaksen combined a goal with an assist while helping set the pace early. Romano Floriani Mussolini also got on the scoresheet with his first Serie A goal, finishing with a 7.41 rating.

The result and the chaos around it

The final score was already lopsided before the game settled into its odd moments. Two missed penalties and a sending-off added to the noise at the Mapei Stadium, but Lazio still collected their eighth league win in nine matches and their fifth away league win.

Calciomercato.it described the result as a continuation of Lazio's march, and the report reflected that mood. There is still a caveat in the table picture, though, because other standing data has Lazio second on 22 points after the match rather than first. What does not change is the performance level in this game, with Zaccagni setting the pace and Noslin and Isaksen backing it up.
