Lazio have a serious focus issue which sees them consistently drop points in the dying minutes of matches.
As reported by Italian newspaper La Repubblica (via LazioNews24) earlier today, the Biancocelesti have dropped five points in stoppage time so far this season whilst only picking up two, a marked change from how things used to be under previous coach Simone Inzaghi.

In addition to the points dropped in Lazio’s loss to Napoli, the Biancocelesti also dropped two points against Udinese thanks to a 99th minute goal and one against Atalanta in Bergamo.

In a more positive light, Lazio have scored two decisive goals in extra time this Serie A season. The first came in the 1-1 draw against Torino back in September, when Ciro Immobile netted a penalty, and the second came against Empoli at home when Sergej Milinkovic-Savic scored in the 93rd minute.
Former Biancocelesti striker Felipe Caicedo was well known for scoring goals in the final minutes of matches and his departure has seemingly seen the team collapse in this regard.
