Zarate blow ruins Lazio rout
Friday 12 December, 2008

Lazio hammered amateurs Tor Sapienza in a friendly, but the Biancocelesti's injury woes continue with Mauro Zarate in doubt for Udinese.

After a superb start to the season, the capital club have hit the skids in recent weeks.

Delio Rossi's men will look to get back to winning ways when they face an out-of-sorts Udinese this weekend.

The Aquile warmed up for their test by thrashing Sixth Division opponents Tor Sapienza 11-0 at Formiello.

Venetian striking star Tommaso Rocchi hit a hat-trick, Pasquale Foggia and Simone Del Nero grabbed braces and there were goals for Christian Manfredini and Mourad Meghni.

However, injuries continue to plague Rossi's squad and Argentine striking revelation Mauro Zarate had to be taken off after suffering a foot injury.

Stephan Lichtsteiner, Goran Pandev and Lorenzo De Silvestri are also out of action and unlikely to play at the Stadio Friuli, but Aleksandar Kolarov is expected to make it.
