Boulaye Dia opened the scoring for Lazio in the fifth minute before Dele-Bashiru’s goal. Dia completed his brace later in the match, sealing the victory for the Italian side.
The game heated up towards the end, with one player from each team being sent off. Maksym Bragaru of Dynamo Kyiv was dismissed in the 72nd minute, followed by Lazio’s Tijjani Noslin in the 82nd.
Dele-Bashiru, who joined Lazio on loan from Hatayspor, has impressed in his early appearances. His goal against Dynamo Kyiv will likely solidify his position in the team and increase the chances of a permanent move to Italy at the end of the season.
