Lazio closed the ninth day of Serie A with a result that made people talk: 6-0 against Sassuolo. In the press room of the Mapei Stadium, coach Gennaro Gattuso shared his impressions of the match, highlighting the team's progress and the teamwork that led to that result.
Gattuso began his speech by recalling how, at the beginning of the season, the team had not been protagonists and that the path to improvement had been slow but constant. "We tried to do something different, we took the team apart. The first game was tough, but it showed us that we were going in the right direction," he said. The coach underlined that the secret of success lies in seriousness and daily work: "We are improving game after game and we must continue to work seriously and at a thousand miles per hour."
The 6–0 result was interpreted by Gattuso as a confirmation of the team's ability to play offensively and exploit opportunities. He praised the performance of Noslin, who scored a brace, and reiterated the importance of a collective approach: "We shouldn't just look at Noslin's goals. He always goes at full speed and this creates thoughts in the opponents. When we don't go to pinch, we have to make a defensive block, we send them wide and make them start again." Gattuso also recognized the important role of the fans, stating that the presence of 10,000 spectators in the stadium is a motivational factor for the team.
The coach then spoke about the tactical decisions, explaining the choice to insert Diogo Leite in defense and to maintain continuity with the players who showed a desire to work. He also mentioned the replacement of Tayloro, motivated by a warning and a protest episode with Doig. Gattuso expressed the hope of having all the players available, underlining the importance of not letting players stay in physiotherapy without working.
Finally, Gattuso shared his vision of a "magical" atmosphere on the pitch, the result of teamwork and mental preparation. He recalled that the team worked in the video room and analyzed the departments to understand how to press the opponents, introducing a new and stimulating approach. With these words, Gattuso closed the conference, suggesting that Lazio will continue to focus on collective work and seriousness to achieve their objectives in the next matches.
