Onazi Captains Lazio To Second Pre-Season Win

Super Eagles midfielder Ogenyi Onazi captained his Italian side, SS Lazio, to their second pre-season win over Serie B side, Padovaon Wednesday and was pleased to have ended the game without an injury, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.

The 24 year old Nigeria international who starred for 88 minutes in his second appearance for the Biancocelesti in the current pre-season, admitted that the game was a good test for the club.

Onazi wrote via his Twitter handle, ‏@OnaziOgenyi: “Good test for us today with a strong side. Thank God for no injury we keep working hard.”

Danilo Cataldi’s early goal in the fourth minute from the penalty spot was cancelled out by Cristian Altinier in the 28th minute.

Filip Djordjevic sealed the win for Lazio three minutes later.

Onazi who scored a brace for Lazio in their 19-0 win over Italian fourth division side, Auronzo last week has since been heavily linked with a move to Turkey.
