It was Cagliari’s fourth straight loss and left Claudio Ranieri’s team in penultimate position, albeit only a point from safety.

Lazio took the lead in Sardinia thanks to a comical own-goal in the 26th minute as two Cagliari players got into a tangle when trying to deal with a Gustav Isaksen ball across the six-yard box and Paulo Azzi’s attempted clearance ricocheted in off Alessandro Deiola’s shin.

Immobile doubled Lazio’s lead shortly after the break when he tapped in a rebound after Cagliari goalkeeper Simone Scuffet could only parry Isaksen’s strike.

Gianluca Gaetano curled a spectacular effort into the top far corner two minutes later to get Cagliari back into the match, but Felipe Anderson all but sealed the win for Lazio in the 65th minute.
