Result: Lazio 2-1 Roma

Miroslav Klose's late striker earns Lazio a 2-1 win against Roma in the Rome derby.

An injury-time winner from Miroslav Klose has earned Lazio a 2-1 win against Roma in the Rome derby.

The visitors took an early lead when Pablo Osvaldo caught the Lazio defence napping to fire home after five minutes.

Roma were down to 10 men shortly after the restart when Simon Kjaer brought down Cristian Brocchi in the penalty area. Hernanes stepped up to calmly slot home the spot kick.

After Djibril Cisse went close for the hosts with a thunderous volley late on, Klose sealed the win in the 93rd minute when he slipped through the Roma defence before smashing in.

The result has lifted Lazio into fourth place in the Serie A table.
