MILAN — Lazio has been held at relegation-threatened Hellas Verona to 1-1 in Serie A. That hampers its hopes of consolidating its place in the top four in a tight race for the Champions League spots. Cyril Ngonge scored his first goal for Verona on his first start to cancel out Pedro's opener. Lazio is a point behind Roma and four behind second-placed Inter Milan. Verona moved to within four points of safety. Sampdoria is four points further back after a stoppage-time penalty saw Monza snatch a 2-2 draw.
