Loan watch: Tavares helps Lazio draw with Atalanta

Nuno Tavares' Lazio finished 2024 with a 1-1 draw against Serie A leaders Atalanta at the Stadio Olimpico.

The Portuguese full-back started his fourth league match in a row for the Rome-based club, who took the lead when Fisayo Dele-Bashiru fired in his first-half goal.

Nuno was replaced on 62 minutes by Luca Pellegrini, but Lazio couldn't hold on for all three points as Marco Brescianini levelled for the visitors in the 88th minute.

The result leaves Lazio in fourth position heading into the new year, six points behind the league leaders.

Nuno has enjoyed a productive start to his loan spell in Italy and ends 2024 with eight assists from 15 matches in all competitions.
