Gennaro Gattuso credits luck in Lazio's 2-0 win over Venezia

Lazio manager Gennaro Gattuso credited his team with “very, very great luck” following a 2-0 away victory against Venezia. Goalkeeper Christos Mandas was a key figure in the win, saving a penalty from John Jeboah and several other significant threats.

Matteo Zaccagni scored from the penalty spot, and Tijjani Noslin secured the win with a powerful header. Gattuso noted that while the team's first-half approach was flawed, they improved significantly after the break.

Reflecting on his decision to join the club, Gattuso admitted he was aware of the chaotic environment and the challenges posed by President Claudio Lotito. He stated that he chose the role specifically because he spoke with players he knew from the national team who appeared “hungry for success.”
