history

Società Sportiva Lazio in 1940

Lazio Rome was founded on January 9, 1900 by Luigi Bigiarelli. However, great successes were initially rare. 1957/58 you could win the Italian Cup . In the 1973/74 season the Italian championship for the first time .

1980 the club in the wake of a betting scandal was with the AC Milan in the Serie B forcibly transferred, by then the most infamous chapter in the over one hundred year history. After three seasons they were promoted again , but as early as 1984/85 Lazio had to go back to Serie B as bottom of the table. It was not until the 1988/89 season that Lazio played first class again.

From the 1992/93 season , Lazio was able to establish itself among the top teams in Serie A and the next seasons never ended worse than fifth. In 1997 the Swede Sven-Göran Eriksson took over the coaching position at Lazio Rome. His first season, the 1997/98 season , ended only in seventh place in the table, but the Italian Cup was won again. In addition, Lazio was able to reach the final in the UEFA Cup , where the Biancocelesti had to admit defeat Inter Milan 3-0.

In the 1998/99 season , the club invested the enormous sum of 126.4 million euros in new players. Christian Vieri , Marcelo Salas , Siniša Mihajlović and Dejan Stanković were just some of the notable new signings this season. The success initially proved the club's management right, because with a 2-1 victory over RCD Mallorca , Lazio won the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1998/99 , which is also the greatest success in the club's history. Lazio also secured the UEFA Super Cup with a 1-0 win over Champions League winners Manchester United .

After the double consisting of a championship title and a cup win in 2000 , Lazio got into financial difficulties due to multi-million player transfers by their then club president, although at the beginning of the season striker Christian Vieri was sold to Inter Milan for the then record sum of 45 million euros.

In the 2000/01 season , 77.7 million euros were invested in new players, including the record transfer fee of 55 million euros for the Argentine Hernán Crespo . Also Angelo Peruzzi , who the next year kept goal for Lazio, has been transferred in this season. For the 2001/02 season , top performers such as Juan Sebastián Verón , Pavel Nedvěd and Marcelo Salas were sold for a total of over 100 million euros, but new players were signed for an even higher sum: Jaap Stam for almost 26 million euros, Stefano Fiore for 25 Million euros and midfielder Gaizka Mendieta from the Spanish club FC Valencia for 48 million euros. Mendieta could not meet the expectations placed in him and never really found his form.

Over the years, Lazio has driven itself to the brink of ruin through its football rivalry with AS Roma and in pursuit of supremacy in the city with increasingly expensive player purchases. As early as 2002/03 the club was forced to sell important players due to massive debts: Alessandro Nesta to AC Milan for 30 million euros and Hernán Crespo to Inter Milan for 36 million euros. Nevertheless, the Italian Cup was won again in 2003/04. But also in 2004/05 , Jaap Stam (10.5 million euros, AC Milan) and Stefano Fiore (17 million euros, FC Valencia ) had to sell other key players.

Like Juventus Turin , Lazio was involved in the Serie A manipulation scandal involving Luciano Moggi , which became known in 2006. As a penalty, the relegation to Serie B (second highest division) and the deduction of seven points for the 2006/07 season was imposed against Lazio. Lazio went into revision against this judgment twice successfully: In the first revision judgment, the forced relegation was softened into an 11-point deduction, in the second judgment these eleven points were again reduced to three points.

From a sporting point of view, the last few years have been a constant ups and downs for Lazio: The 2006/07 season was finished third in the table despite the deduction of points and thus achieved the Champions League qualification . In this, Lazio was able to prevail against Dinamo Bucharest and thus qualify for the main competition, in which they were only bottom of the group behind Real Madrid , Olympiacos and Werder Bremen . In the league it was also relatively disappointing in the following years and Lazio never got beyond a place in the middle of the table. With a win on penalties over Sampdoria Genoa , the Italian Cup was won for the fifth time in 2009 .

The 2010/11 and 2011/12 seasons were finished fifth and fourth, respectively, which entitles them to participate in the UEFA Europa League . In 2012/13 , Lazio won the Italian Cup for the sixth time with a final victory over AS Roma.

Lazio ended the 2014/15 season in third place and thus secured the opportunity to qualify for the 2015/16 UEFA Champions League .

Game and training facilities

→ Main article : Rome Olympic Stadium

Since 1953, Lazio has played its home games at the Stadio Olympico. The multifunctional stadium was built from 1927 to 1932 as part of the Foro Italico and has since served as the venue for numerous major sporting events such as the 1960 Summer Olympics , the World Athletics Championships in 1987 , the European Football Championships in 1968 and 1980 , the 1990 World Cup , and to date five European Cup finals. The annual Coppa Italia final has been held at the Olympico since 2008 .

The Stadio Olympico is the European football association UEFA in the category 4 (Elite Stadium) is arranged stadium and, with currently more than 70,000 spectators, the largest in Europe.

Fans and followers

Lazio fans in the Curva Nord of the Olympic Stadium (2007)

Especially at home games in the derby against local rivals AS Roma , ultra-groupings from Lazio Roma (Curva Nord) have often shown themselves to be violent in the past . There were repeated violent clashes. Lazio has been punished several times by the Italian federation with bans or games in camera. The Irriducibili Lazio ultra-grouping , which openly admitted to fascism and accordingly acted racist and anti-Semitic , posed a problem until it was dissolved . For example, at home and away games, flags and banners with the swastika or other fascist symbols were often seen. The group increasingly lost its grip on the curve , mainly due to its extensive commercial activities such as selling a wide range of merchandise . The leadership position changed to the nationally respected Banda Noantri . Parts of the Lazio Ultras are still considered politically right to right-wing extremists .

Rivalries

AS Roma

→ Main article : Derby della Capitale

Lazio Rome is part of one of the most famous football derbies in the world, the Derby della Capitale (German capital city derby), also Derby di Roma , Derby Capitolino or Derby del Cupolone , the city derby against AS Roma . The first meeting of the two clubs took place on December 8, 1929 in the Serie A instead.

The derby is particularly explosive because of the fan rivalry between the two Roman clubs. There are also historical and political reasons for this: The Roma were born in the politically left-wing working-class district of Testaccio in the south of Rome, while Lazio is based in the politically right-wing , affluent Parioli in northern Rome.

Suppliers and sponsors

The Italian sporting goods manufacturer Macron has been the supplier since 2012 , and the contract runs until 2022.

This was followed by Seleco (1982–1984), Castor (1984–1986), Cassa di Risparmio di Roma (1986–1991), Banco di Santo Spirito (1991–1992), Banca di Roma (1992–1996), Cirio ( 1996–1992) 2000), Del Monte Foods (1998–1999), Stream (1999–2000), Siemens (2000–2003), Indesit (2003–2004), Parmacotto (2003–2005), INA Assitalia (2005–2007), Edileuropa ( 2007–2008), Groupama / Region Latium (2008–2009), Edileuropa / Paideia (2009), Paideia (2014) and Seleco (2017–).
