After starting his career with Modena, Sentimenti played football for several other Italian clubs, including Juventus and Lazio.[4][5]
A former out-field player, who was capable of playing in any position, including as a striker, due to his excellent shot, Sentimenti was known for being an accurate penalty-kick taker, and very adept with the ball at his feet, possessing a long goal kick and accurate distribution, and was known to be one of the first goalscoring goalkeepers. Nicknamed "Cochi", he was a reliable, tenacious and composed goalkeeper, who was known for his intelligence and speed when rushing off his line to anticipate his opponents with his feet, as well as his ability to come out and collect crosses or punch the ball clear, despite his small stature, due to his athleticism, command of his area, and strong physique. An excellent shot-stopper between the posts, he was also known for his agility, handling, consistency, composure, and positional sense, although at times he was caught out from distance throughout his career.[1][4][5][6]
The Sentimenti family were prominent in Italian football, several of Lucidio's relatives in the game include his brothers; Ennio, Arnaldo, Vittorio and Primo, his cousins Lino and nephews Roberto and Andrea Sentimenti.[4][5]
