Mario Balotelli was on the mark for Nice in their Europa League defeat to Lazio.

Lazio striker Ciro Immobile was seen chatting with his Italy teammate before the match.

Immobile, after the win, was asked what he'd said to Balotelli.

“He just said he was cheering on Italy in the World Cup play-offs and we talked about how things were going, congratulating each other on our growing families."
