ROME (Reuters) - Modest Crotone, eight points adrift of safety at the start of April, completed one of Serie A's great escapes when they beat Lazio 3-1 on Sunday to avoid relegation on the final day of the season.

Serie A debutants Crotone began the day in the drop zone, where they had spent the entire season, but leapfrogged Empoli who went down instead after losing 2-1 at already-relegated Palermo.
