Lazio defeats Genoa with a Frattesi goal as tensions escalate late

Summary

Lazio secured a 1-0 win against Genoa on August 30, 2026, marking the second consecutive victory for Gattuso’s side this season. Davide Frattesi scored the match’s only goal in the 24th minute following a run by Nuno Tavares that set up a left-footed strike past the Genoa goalkeeper. This result keeps Lazio at maximum points through the opening 180 minutes of play, while Genoa remains without a goal after two matches. The match concluded with a confrontation between Lazio captain Zaccagni and Amorim. During the final moments, Zaccagni was booked after placing his hands around Amorim's neck during a dispute. This win marks the first time since 2004 that a Lazio midfielder has scored in each of the team's first two league matches.
