Welcome to live text commentary of the Serie A encounter between Lazio and Internazionale at the Stadio Olimpico.

The final whistle goes at the Stadio Olimpico, and Lazio have won this match 1-0 courtesy of Miroslav Klose's 82nd-minute strike! It's a tough blow to take for Inter, who show their displeasure with the officials at the end. The home fans are delighted, and Lazio are now just a point behind their visitors in the Serie A table. Thanks for joining us.

A sublime piece of skill from Cassano outwide sees him take the ball down the left and find Guarin, but his overhead kick is mistimed and Lazio clear once more.

It's frantic stuff now with Inter pressing forward in their droves and Lazio hanging on with every player behind the ball.

Candreva is shown the yellow card for a foul on Palacio, and Inter have another free kick.

There will be four added minutes at the end of this second half with Inter pushing desperately for an equaliser.

Palacio wins a free kick with a neat turn as Ciani dives in, only for the free kick to be wasted by Guarin.

Andre Dias replaces Hernanes now, and Lazio have made all three changes.

Philippe Coutinho replaces Pereira, who had to come off at this stage of the game.

Hernanes is about to be withdrawn as he is moving very gingerly now, and Lazio are clinging on to their slender lead.

Klose is almost immediately taken off as Sergio Floccari comes on in his place.

GOAL! Finally, the deadlock is broken as Klose races through on goal and slides a clinical finish beyond Handanovic! It was Mauri with the incisive defence-splitting pass, and Lazio take a late lead in this match!

Biava wins a free kick for Lazio as Pereira concedes the set piece, and one moment of inspiration could win this match.

Klose goes down very easily inside the Inter box after chasing down a loose ball with Samuel, and the referee is not impressed with the German! The forward wanted a penalty but does not get one.

Candreva and Mauri combine once more, but this time the substitute draws a solid save from Handanovic.

Palacio links up with Guarin very effectively, but he can only blast a wild shot into the stands!

Candreva has looked very bright since coming on, and he jinks inside two challenges before firing wide of the near post!

Nagatomo plants another shot on target from the edge of the penalty area, but again Marchetti is able to palm the ball away to safety!

Klose and Hernanes have shots from range in quick succession, but Handanovic is not troubled by either.

What a save from Marchetti, who tips a stunning shot from Cassano onto the post, before saving from Nagatomo, who pounces from close range - it's a brilliant double save!

Milito drives a fierce shot wide from 25 yards after a neat exchange with Zanetti, and it's a disappointing end to a promising move.
