Gattuso: We Do Not Deserve the Top Spot

Lazio won 2-1 away at Parma to climb to the top of the Serie A table. Facing the home side's quick counterattacks, Lazio had a difficult spell, but raised the tempo in the second half and took control of the match. Goalkeeper Christos Mandas made three important saves during Parma's dangerous breaks, keeping his team in the game.

The goals came from Kenneth Taylor and an own goal by Diego Carlos. Near the end, Simone Lontani's cross came back off the post, giving Parma a close chance in the final minutes, but the result did not change. With this win, Lazio are enjoying their best spell of the season after seven victories, following a 2-2 draw with Milan.

Speaking after the match, Gattuso said he was happy with his team's mentality. However, he stressed that he does not believe Lazio deserve to be in this position. The head coach said the complacency shown in recent games against Milan and Monza was not seen in this match, and that the team took a more correct step.

Gattuso said they do not feel the pressure of being at the top and that their goal is to progress match by match. The same evening, Roma drew 3-3 with Napoli, leaving Lazio four points ahead of their city rivals. The head coach noted that they are writing a new page in the club's history and that the number of fans attending each match is growing, and said they want to continue on their path.
