In a high-tension match like this, his management could significantly affect the rhythm and emotional control of the teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udd25 The context: the protest of the organised support<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent months the Olimpico has remained almost completely empty for Lazio&#x27;s home games. The organised support have chosen to desert the stadium to protest against the club management, considered distant, lacking transparency and incapable of valuing the history and identity of the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The motivations behind the protest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&quot;To the bitter end&quot; protest against the management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Desire to show the economic and social impact of an empty stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Refusal to be &quot;accomplices to the failures&quot; of the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why they are returning to the stadium against Milan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The organised support have announced a symbolic pause in the protest:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They will return to the stadium only for Lazio\u2013Milan, for a &quot;last dance&quot; of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal is to make the team feel that it has never been abandoned, while keeping the protest against the club firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After this match, the protest will resume until the end of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The meaning of the message in the post below from Zandera Lazio on Instagram<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The text recalls a key concept: unity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The heart of the message is an invitation to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">not leave the stadium to the opposing fans;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">not disperse the effect of the protest, which so far has had strength precisely because of the empty stadium;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">reason together, putting aside personal convictions for the common good;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">decide collectively when to be there and when not to be there;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">reaffirm that &quot;we are in charge of the game&quot;, meaning that the Lazio people are protagonists of their own destiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This connects perfectly with the choice to return for one night only:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">it is not a step back, but a gesture of identity, pride and self-determination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u26bd What to expect from the match<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lazio<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seeking consistency after complicated weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Needs the support of the crowd, as also underlined by Sarri, who called playing in an empty stadium &quot;depressing&quot;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Milan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are in the thick of the title race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Arrive with excellent away form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Know that a full Olimpico can turn the match into an emotional battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\udded A night that goes beyond football<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lazio\u2013Milan will not just be a match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It will be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">an act of love towards the team,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">a political message to the club,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">a moment of collective identity,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">an emotional test for the players,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">a symbolic return of the Lazio people to their temple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And, as the message in the post says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&quot;Turn on your brains, reason\u2026 we are in charge of the game.&quot;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udcca Head-to-head record over the last 10 years Over the last ten years Lazio and Milan have played more than 25 official matches between Serie A and Coppa Italia.
