Immobile hat-trick keeps Lazio on title track

Milan, Jan 19 (AFP):

Ciro Immobile scored a hat-trick as Lazio thrashed ten-man Sampdoria 5-1 to consolidate third place and keep the pressure on leaders Juventus and Inter Milan. Simone Inzaghi’s Lazio extended their club record winning streak to 11 league games as they target a first Serie A title since 2000 with Immobile the division’s runaway top scorer with 23 goals. “If we get to seven, eight, ten games from the end and we are still there, why not try to still believe? But for now the goal re- mains the Champions League,” insisted Immobile. “The important thing is to continue like this without getting carried away.” Immobile is on course to overtake Gonzalo Higuain’s Serie A record of 36 goals scored for Napoli in the 2015-2016 season. Immobile played a role in Felipe Caicedo’s opener on just seven min- utes at the Stadio Olimpico. He added two more in a three-minute first-half spell, the first from the spot after a Nicola Murru handball, to put Lazio three goals up after 20 minutes. Angolan defender Bastos tapped in nine minutes after the break, with Immobile converting a second penalty on 65 minutes.Sampdoria played the final quarter of an hour a man down after Julian Chabot was sent off for bringing down Bobby Adekanye.
