Goal by Goalkeeper Provedel Secures Lazio a 1-1 Draw with Atletico Madrid

Goalkeeper Ivan Provedel scored in the dying moments to secure a 1-1 draw for Lazio against their visitors Atletico Madrid in Group E of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday. The Lazio goalkeeper advanced in the fifth minute of stoppage time to convert a corner kick with a header into the net. Pablo Barrios had given Atletico the lead with a long-range shot that deflected off defender Daichi Kamada, confusing goalkeeper Provedel in the 29th minute. Atletico nearly extended their lead at the start of the second half, but Alvaro Morata's attempt struck the post, while Provedel saved several opportunities to keep Lazio's hopes alive in the match. Ivan Provedel became the fourth goalkeeper to score a goal in the history of the Champions League, and the second to do so from open play rather than set pieces.
