Lazio secures third straight Serie A win with comeback victory over Udinese
Lazio secured their third consecutive Serie A victory with a 2-1 comeback win against Udinese, moving to nine points and joining Inter and Roma at the top of the table. After falling behind to a Jesper Karlström goal in the 49th minute, Lazio responded through Davide Frattesi in the 75th minute. The winning goal was scored by substitute Albert Gudmundsson in the 88th minute with a header assisted by Doekhi.
Davide Frattesi has emerged as a key figure for manager Gennaro Gattuso, scoring in each of his first three matches for the club. This performance marks the first time since the 2012/13 season that Lazio has started the league with three consecutive wins. The team's success follows a difficult period that included an early exit from the Coppa Italia.
Following the match, Gattuso emphasized the importance of hard work and tactical growth, noting that the team showed great mentality to overturn the deficit. The victory also highlights the impact of summer signings, with both Frattesi and Gudmundsson contributing decisive goals.
