Lazio's Champions League hopes fading despite late draw vs. Lecce
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic snatched a last-gasp point for Lazio with his stoppage-time leveller in Friday's 2-2 draw with Serie A strugglers Lecce.
Trailing from early in the second half to two goals from Remi Oudin, Lazio grabbed a point in the 94th minute thanks to Milinkovic-Savic's header, which trickled into the Lecce net.
Maurizio Sarri's side is third in Italy's top flight after winning one of its last five matches, conceding second spot to Juventus.
From appearing certain to qualify for the Champions League, Lazio are now looking over their shoulders in the race for the top four spots.
They are four points ahead of fifth-placed Milan, who travel to Spezia on Saturday. Inter Milan can take third with a home win over Sassuolo.
Milinkovic-Savic's equalizer was devastating for Lecce.
With three matches left in their season, they are five points above Spezia, who sit just inside the relegation zone.
