"The whole night was emotional, as seeing the Stadio Olimpico with this spectacular atmosphere and these fans was wonderful. I am so happy that the team gave them this joy of a victory, but it would've been a memorable night regardless of the result."
"I feel that we should've finished the first half with more than a one-goal advantage, so if there was a criticism of our performance, it's that. Clearly, we couldn't maintain the intensity of that half, and had limited options to take off the bench, so that made it difficult as it wore on."
"The atmosphere at the Olimpico was special tonight. This is a team that is improving in many areas, and we hope to lay solid foundations for the future."
Lazio secured a 1-0 victory over AC Milan in front of over 50,000 fans at the Olimpico, marking a significant return of supporters after recent protests. The team managed injuries to key players by deploying centre-back Patric in a deep-lying midfield role. Gustav Isaksen scored the decisive goal in the first half after latching onto a ball over the top. Manager Maurizio Sarri praised the emotional atmosphere and fan support, noting the team could have extended their first-half advantage. He emphasized that the galvanized squad performed well defensively despite limited substitution options as the match progressed.
