Gennaro Gattuso's Lazio maintained their lead at the top of Serie A on Sunday with a 2-1 win over Cagliari, putting them three points ahead of Inter Milan. After a poor start where Cagliari scored through M Bala Nzola in the 20th minute, Lazio secured victory with goals from Gustav Isaksen and Andrea Pinamonti. Lazio now have 28 points from 10 games, surpassing Inter's 24 points.
Roma remains third with 24 points, while Como returned to fourth place with a 1-0 win over Venezia. Lazio's sixth consecutive Serie A win came despite largely empty sections of the Stadio Olimpico, due to fans protesting owner Claudio Lotito's perceived lack of investment. Como's home victory over Venezia was their fifth in a row across competitions.
