yevhen seleznyov scored a last-minute equaliser, dnipro dnipropetrovsk demonstrating the resolve that took them to last season's uefa europa league final to claim a 1-1 draw against lazio.
ın a cagey encounter, it was lazio who created the game's first chance when – in the 16th minute – ogenyi onazi played in alessandro matri, who timed his run across the line expertly before firing in a shot that denys boyko barely palmed away for a corner.
lazio continued to look dangerous, and in the 34th minute they took the lead through sergej milinkovic-savic, the serbian under-21 international deftly guiding ricardo kishna's pinpoint free-kick into the dnipro net.
the hosts' best chance of the half came on the stroke of half-time, the busy léo matos's cross finding seleznyov, but the ukranian international could not inject enough power into the header to trouble federico marchetti.
stefano pioli's side almost doubled their lead immediately after the break, kishna's free-kick creating havoc in the dnipro area and forcing edmar to almost steer the ball into his own net, with only the reflexes of boyko sparing his team-mate's blushes.
the hosts almost struck back through papa gueye, who headed powerfully over the bar from a free-kick while in plenty of space, but must have feared their unbeaten home record was slipping away as lazio continued to hold firm.
however, with just seconds of added time left, another léo cross found seleznyov unmarked and the ukranian international made no mistake, placing the ball past marchetti to earn his side a potentially vital point.
