  "account": "MILAN, Italy: Lazio secured a notable victory on Sunday, defeating Juventus 3-0 in Turin and leveling on points with Serie A leaders Inter Milan. Despite trailing Inter on goal difference, Lazio's total of 19 points after seven league games surpasses the 17 accumulated by the defending champions during their 1999-2000 season opener. Lazio coach Gennaro Gattuso emphasized the importance of maintaining their current approach, while Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti acknowledged his team's poor performance, citing a lack of ideas and sluggish play. AC Milan also won 3-2 at Atalanta, with Relja Obric scoring a penalty and Mario Gila and Nikola Krstovic replying. Como claimed their first win in four matches, defeating Fiorentina 3-1, while Lecce recorded a 3-0 triumph at Udinese.",
