Lazio, with the team in first place in the standings, revived the enthusiasm of the fans, who reached the Mapei Stadium in Reggio Emilia for a midweek match. The demonstration, scheduled for Tuesday at 6.30pm, saw the presence of over ten thousand Biancocelesti fans, despite the continuation of protests at the Olimpico against Claudio Lotito's ownership.
Lazio, led by Gennaro Gattuso, is at the top of Serie A with seven wins and no defeats after eight league days, tied with Inter. The decision to move the match to the Mapei Stadium, home of Sassuolo, was taken in a context in which organized support no longer enters the Olimpico.
The away section, with 4,000 seats, was sold out, and most of the fans settled in the other sections of the stadium. The atmosphere was described as almost "friendly", with Lazio able to play in a very supportive environment.
No new trips, injuries or contract renewals were reported. Tuesday's match represents an opportunity for Lazio to consolidate their position in the standings and demonstrate the strength of their following, as the team continues to focus on success in the championship.
