News Desk : A late equaliser from Marco Brescianini kept Atalanta top of Serie A with a point at Lazio.
Fisayo Dele-Bashiru`s first-half goal for the hosts looked to have Lazio on course for victory before Brescianini scored in the 88th minute.
The result does mean Atalanta`s streak of 11 consecutive victories is at an end.
However, Gian Piero Gasperini`s side are still top of the table with 41 points, one ahead of Inter Milan who won 3-0 at Cagliari earlier on Saturday, while Lazio are fourth.
The Rome side dominated the first half and were rewarded in the 27th minute when Nicolo Rovella played a high through ball to Dele-Bashiru.
The former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder cut inside and volleyed home.
But Atalanta snatched a point late on when Ademola Lookman found Brescianini to score from close range.
It moved Atalanta back above Inter in the Italian top flight, though the Milan side have a game in hand.
Second-half goals from Alessandro Bastoni, Lautaro Martinez and Hakan Calhanoglu gave Inter their fifth straight league win.
