Del Rosso: "We Have A Remarkable Group, And We Must Continue To Display This Attitude Game After Game. This Is A Lazio That Fosters Camaraderie And Fun, And Time Will Tell How Things Develop."

Lazio have returned to form by defeating Cagliari at Unipol Domus, reclaiming fourth place in the standings. The match was ultimately decided by goals from Zaccagni and Castellanos, which negated Piccoli's equalizer. At the post-match press conference, Del Rosso, the assistant to suspended coach Baroni, shared his insights:

"We knew we were heading into a challenging environment against a well-prepared team with strong fan support. Our squad entered the game with the right mindset, blending our usual character with extra determination and aggression because we were intent on winning. After conceding an equalizer, the team responded brilliantly, scoring again and taking control. In the final fifteen minutes, every player fought for every ball. Our approach is fundamentally offensive; while each match presents different challenges, this particular scenario highlighted an exceptional mentality that will serve us well in the future."

"Hysaj? We hope the injury isn't too severe, but based on how he left the field and his condition, our outlook isn't overly optimistic. In the coming days, he'll undergo the necessary tests to determine the injury's extent."

"The team played in their typical style, maintaining strong possession, finding gaps between the lines, and shifting the play as needed. It's natural that a compact opposition makes it difficult to fully develop our game, but our quick ball movement allowed us to generate significant counterattacks when we lost possession."

"Gigot was brought on as soon as we realized the extent of Hysaj's injury—sometimes decisions need to be made quickly. He was warming up and was immediately called into the game. Regarding the late substitutions, I believe they were well-timed. We adjusted our tactical setup based on which players were most effective at that moment, considering the need for energy and physical presence. These were changes dictated by the flow of the game."

"We're accustomed to playing on our home turf. We have a remarkable group, and we must continue to display this attitude game after game. Two players, who are integral to our project, have been incorporated into a squad that trains with full commitment throughout the week. It's important to remain grounded. This is a Lazio that fosters camaraderie and fun, and time will tell how things develop."

"I didn't have time to get emotional because I was focused on the match. After the game, we spoke with Baroni and were very pleased with both the result and the team's fighting spirit in overcoming challenging situations."

"Belahyane? He's a player we know well. He hasn't played much with us because we considered him a bit immature at the time, but by the season's end, he showed significant potential for growth. If he joins Lazio, he can contribute meaningfully to our project. As for Casadei, I can't comment since he isn't with us."
