Early in the second half, three Belgians were allowed to enter AC Milan at the same time: De Ketelaere, Saelemaekers and Origi. Alexis Saelemaekers made himself noticed with a lob ball in the small rectangle, on which Leao came in, but Lazio defender Hysaj prevented the goal.

In the end, the input of the three Belgians would change little in the course of the match. After 67 minutes the game was all over when Luis Alberto made it 3-0 from the spot. The Spaniard brought in the 4-0 moments later, finished by Felipe Anderson.
