&lt;p&gt;The 15th day of Serie A ended with the first&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;change&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;at the top of the standings&lt;/strong&gt; after nine rounds of solitary lead by Napoli: the Neapolitans` defeat by Lazio gave Atalanta an&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;unprecedented sole lead&lt;/strong&gt;. Never in their history have the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Dea&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;been at the top after 15 or more matches: in 2022/23 the Bergamaschi were in the lead after just five rounds, before relinquishing it almost immediately. The success against AC Milan further strengthens Gasperini`s team in their bid for glory: in a very open championship, where things can change every day, they were allowed to dream in Bergamo.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Behind Atalanta, Baroni`s&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Lazio&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;won at the Maradona and re-launched themselves in the Scudetto race, while&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Fiorentina &lt;/strong&gt;did not slow down, getting their eighth consecutive victory and remaining a step away from the top, with the match with Inter still to be rescheduled. The fight for the title remains open and balanced, with five teams within three points. Juventus, AC Milan and Bologna are further behind, losing ground: the Bianconeri drew for the fourth time in a row, while the Rossoneri fell in Bergamo in a match that distanced them from the top. In the relegation zone, Hellas Verona collapsed at home against&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Empoli&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;and were sucked to the bottom of the table, while&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Udinese&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;returned to victory in Monza.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The day opened with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Inter triumphing&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;against Parma at the Meazza.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/control-and-finish-from-dimarco-1424f8egd715io&#34; data-new-window=&#34;true&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dimarco&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;lit up the evening with the opening goal&lt;/a&gt;: he broke free in the box with a backheel and then slotted the ball home past Suzuki with his weak foot, becoming the most prolific defender at home in Europe`s top five leagues since November 2023 with six goals.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Barella and Thuram &lt;/strong&gt;completed the job and Darmian`s own goal in the final minutes could not undermine yet another show of strength from Inzaghi`s men. Tikus, in particular, reached double figures in the league, establishing himself as the only man to do so for two consecutive Serie A seasons. On the other side,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Parma&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;struggled and paid the price for their inexperience, highlighting the almost six-year age difference in line-up compared to their rivals: a season record.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d&#34; data-image-id=&#34;37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/e18085d5-4189-49ed-9b42-8b1ea6f0793a/Sito_HERO_int.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d&#34; data-image-id=&#34;37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Dea beat AC Milan 2-1 at the Gewiss Stadium and topped the table. The goals from the former Rossoneri&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;De Ketelaere&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Lookman&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;confirmed the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;aerial strength of Atalanta&lt;/strong&gt;, who, with eight goals, have scored the most headers in Europe. Their record is impressive: unbeaten for 14 matches in a row across all competitions, and they are the first team to score at least two goals in 12 consecutive home games. The Rossoneri found the momentary equaliser with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Morata&lt;/strong&gt;, who returned to scoring in away games in Serie A after 1000 days, but suffered their fifth away defeat of the season, their&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;worst away performance&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;since 2018/19. Among Fonseca`s men, &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/maignan-s-brilliant-saves-1424kmk1176if7&#34; data-new-window=&#34;true&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&gt;the stand-out performance belonged to Maignan&lt;/a&gt;, who was decisive in keeping the game open.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/23a504e9-fac0-4995-b651-6e8673578994/Sito_HERO_ata.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the Ferraris, Genoa and Torino ended&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;0-0&lt;/strong&gt;, with the two teams cancelling each other out in an intense contest. The Grifone only had one shot on target, while the Granata collected three without finding the winning one. For&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Genoa&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;it was the fifth consecutive&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;point-scoring match&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and the second clean sheet in a row. For&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Torino&lt;/strong&gt;, however, it was a small step forward: the Granata broke a streak of four consecutive away defeats, despite continuing to struggle up front, having scored just one goal in their last six matches.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c&#34; data-image-id=&#34;58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/d6043d73-e0c0-4e60-ad91-3d0c178eb5d0/Sito_HERO_gento_hl.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c&#34; data-image-id=&#34;58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was a great show at the Allianz Stadium, where&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Juventus&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Bologna&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;ended&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;2-2&lt;/strong&gt;. The Rossoblù started strongly with goals from&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Ndoye&lt;/strong&gt;, his third in two matches, and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Pobega&lt;/strong&gt;, who was served by a brilliant backheel from Castro, showing great offensive dynamism and a wide variety of attacking options. The hosts, however, did not give up, shortening the deficit with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Koopmeiners&lt;/strong&gt;, his first goal for the Bianconeri, and finding the draw at the end of the game with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Mbangula,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;assisted by Vlahović. The equaliser left both sides with regrets: Juve&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;drew their fourth consecutive game&lt;/strong&gt;, while Italiano would be lamenting the double advantage wasted on one of the most difficult pitches in Serie A.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90&#34; data-image-id=&#34;b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/4cbcaa16-bcbc-4c80-b23b-eebbd9ce2f63/Sito_HERO_juv_mba.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90&#34; data-image-id=&#34;b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ranieri&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;celebrated his 100th Serie A game coached with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Roma&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;in the best possible way, bringing the Capitolini back to winning ways after a few difficult months. The Giallorossi overwhelmed Lecce at the Stadio Olimpico:&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Saelemaekers&lt;/strong&gt;, his first one wearing the new shirt, put Roma ahead, but that was neutralised in the 40th minute by a penalty from Krstović. In the second half,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Mancini&lt;/strong&gt;,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Pisilli&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Koné&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;made it 4-1, sealing a performance of character that reconciled team and fans. Mancini, who scored his eleventh goal for the Giallorossi, all on home soil, and El Shaarawy, who provided two assists, were among the stars. For&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Lecce&lt;/strong&gt;, on the other hand, it was a small step backwards after the victory in Venezia and the draw with Juventus with Giampaolo in charge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244&#34; data-image-id=&#34;709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/b0298594-e120-47f9-94b3-ebf12bc98eff/Sito_HERO_rom.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244&#34; data-image-id=&#34;709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the Sunday lunch match,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Fiorentina&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;secured a 1-0 win over Cagliari, with a goal from&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Cataldi&lt;/strong&gt;. In a hard-fought match, it was the ex-Laziale who scored the decider from the edge of the box, well served by Beltrán`s fourth assist of the season: among the players with at least five goals from 2016 onwards in Serie A, the Fiorentina midfielder has the highest percentage of goals&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;from outside the box&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;(9/11). For the Viola, it is the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;eighth&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;consecutive&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;victory&lt;/strong&gt;, a&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;historical record&lt;/strong&gt;that keeps Palladino`s team near the top of the standings. Cagliari, for their part, remain stuck in 15th place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc&#34; data-image-id=&#34;7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/6744db19-6517-4421-90a8-86b49ddaa3d7/HL.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc&#34; data-image-id=&#34;7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;The&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Bentegodi&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;was the scene of a resounding feat by Empoli, who demolished Verona 4-1 in the first half and achieved their first win in four matches. Undisputed star of the match was&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Sebastiano Esposito&lt;/strong&gt;, who scored his first&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;brace&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;in Serie A and his fourth goal in the league, all from away matches. One of the goals was scored by&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Cacace&lt;/strong&gt;, the first New Zealander to score in the top league, and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Colombo&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Verona&lt;/strong&gt;, who found the consolation goal with Tengstedt, suffered their fourth defeat in a row, further complicating their fight for safety.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9&#34; data-image-id=&#34;2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/68d82c72-afbf-4eb4-a5b7-e25b5ba6c3da/HL.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9&#34; data-image-id=&#34;2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;Under the blizzard,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Venezia&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Como&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;ended a heart-stopping match at 2-2. The Lagunari got ahead with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Nicolussi Caviglia&lt;/strong&gt;`s third goal of the season, but an own goal by&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Candela&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;and a rocket by&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Belotti&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;overturned the result. In the final minutes,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Oristanio&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;gave the crowd a moment of rare beauty with an&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Olimpico&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;from a corner kick. Before this, the last player to score directly from a corner had been Juan Cuadrado in the Juventus shirt against Genoa in December 2021. Venezia conceded another own goal, their third of the tournament, and remain last in the standings, while Como were unbeaten in two away matches in a row for the first time but are still in search of victory.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02&#34; data-image-id=&#34;9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/99e6eb3e-18f4-4b2c-b539-67d59a398c20/HL.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02&#34; data-image-id=&#34;9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lazio&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;won the big match at the Maradona with a narrow victory, the sixth with a one-goal difference for Baroni`s team this season.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Isaksen&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;scored the decisive goal with a surgical finish, giving the Biancocelesti three very important points at the end of a balanced and hard-fought match. The Capitolini thus confirmed their excellent form with six wins in their last seven matches. For &lt;strong&gt;Napoli&lt;/strong&gt;, it was the second home defeat in three matches, showing a moment of slight difficulty for Conte`s men, especially in the attack, with only three goals to their credit in the last five games - currently the seventh worst attack in Serie A.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9&#34; data-image-id=&#34;e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/b188f181-c87d-4eec-8b73-acc6db9edcb6/HL.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9&#34; data-image-id=&#34;e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;The curtain fell on matchday 15 with&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Udinese`&lt;/strong&gt;s victory away at the U-Power Stadium in Monza, who returned to success after five games without victories.

The 15th day of Serie A ended with the first&nbsp;change&nbsp;at the top of the standings after nine rounds of solitary lead by Napoli: the Neapolitans` defeat by Lazio gave Atalanta an&nbsp;unprecedented sole lead. Never in their history have the&nbsp;Dea&nbsp;been at the top after 15 or more matches: in 2022/23 the Bergamaschi were in the lead after just five rounds, before relinquishing it almost immediately. The success against AC Milan further strengthens Gasperini`s team in their bid for glory: in a very open championship, where things can change every day, they were allowed to dream in Bergamo.&nbsp;Behind Atalanta, Baroni`s&nbsp;Lazio&nbsp;won at the Maradona and re-launched themselves in the Scudetto race, while&nbsp;Fiorentina did not slow down, getting their eighth consecutive victory and remaining a step away from the top, with the match with Inter still to be rescheduled. The fight for the title remains open and balanced, with five teams within three points. Juventus, AC Milan and Bologna are further behind, losing ground: the Bianconeri drew for the fourth time in a row, while the Rossoneri fell in Bergamo in a match that distanced them from the top. In the relegation zone, Hellas Verona collapsed at home against&nbsp;Empoli&nbsp;and were sucked to the bottom of the table, while&nbsp;Udinese&nbsp;returned to victory in Monza.The day opened with&nbsp;Inter triumphing&nbsp;against Parma at the Meazza.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/control-and-finish-from-dimarco-1424f8egd715io" data-new-window="true" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dimarco&nbsp;lit up the evening with the opening goal</a>: he broke free in the box with a backheel and then slotted the ball home past Suzuki with his weak foot, becoming the most prolific defender at home in Europe`s top five leagues since November 2023 with six goals.&nbsp;Barella and Thuram completed the job and Darmian`s own goal in the final minutes could not undermine yet another show of strength from Inzaghi`s men. Tikus, in particular, reached double figures in the league, establishing himself as the only man to do so for two consecutive Serie A seasons. On the other side,&nbsp;Parma&nbsp;struggled and paid the price for their inexperience, highlighting the almost six-year age difference in line-up compared to their rivals: a season record.<figure data-asset-id="37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d" data-image-id="37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/e18085d5-4189-49ed-9b42-8b1ea6f0793a/Sito_HERO_int.png" data-asset-id="37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d" data-image-id="37f9807c-cc77-44df-b152-e948ab66340d" alt=""></figure>The Dea beat AC Milan 2-1 at the Gewiss Stadium and topped the table. The goals from the former Rossoneri&nbsp;De Ketelaere&nbsp;and&nbsp;Lookman&nbsp;confirmed the&nbsp;aerial strength of Atalanta, who, with eight goals, have scored the most headers in Europe. Their record is impressive: unbeaten for 14 matches in a row across all competitions, and they are the first team to score at least two goals in 12 consecutive home games. The Rossoneri found the momentary equaliser with&nbsp;Morata, who returned to scoring in away games in Serie A after 1000 days, but suffered their fifth away defeat of the season, their&nbsp;worst away performance&nbsp;since 2018/19. Among Fonseca`s men, <a href="https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/maignan-s-brilliant-saves-1424kmk1176if7" data-new-window="true" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the stand-out performance belonged to Maignan</a>, who was decisive in keeping the game open.<figure data-asset-id="fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a" data-image-id="fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/23a504e9-fac0-4995-b651-6e8673578994/Sito_HERO_ata.png" data-asset-id="fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a" data-image-id="fcbfc8cc-91e1-4107-b768-60642eff749a" alt=""></figure>At the Ferraris, Genoa and Torino ended&nbsp;0-0, with the two teams cancelling each other out in an intense contest. The Grifone only had one shot on target, while the Granata collected three without finding the winning one. For&nbsp;Genoa&nbsp;it was the fifth consecutive&nbsp;point-scoring match&nbsp;and the second clean sheet in a row. For&nbsp;Torino, however, it was a small step forward: the Granata broke a streak of four consecutive away defeats, despite continuing to struggle up front, having scored just one goal in their last six matches.<figure data-asset-id="58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c" data-image-id="58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/d6043d73-e0c0-4e60-ad91-3d0c178eb5d0/Sito_HERO_gento_hl.png" data-asset-id="58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c" data-image-id="58e82ed2-f9f9-4fc7-8b03-74f0ac25ec3c" alt=""></figure>It was a great show at the Allianz Stadium, where&nbsp;Juventus&nbsp;and&nbsp;Bologna&nbsp;ended&nbsp;2-2. The Rossoblù started strongly with goals from&nbsp;Ndoye, his third in two matches, and&nbsp;Pobega, who was served by a brilliant backheel from Castro, showing great offensive dynamism and a wide variety of attacking options. The hosts, however, did not give up, shortening the deficit with&nbsp;Koopmeiners, his first goal for the Bianconeri, and finding the draw at the end of the game with&nbsp;Mbangula,&nbsp;assisted by Vlahović. The equaliser left both sides with regrets: Juve&nbsp;drew their fourth consecutive game, while Italiano would be lamenting the double advantage wasted on one of the most difficult pitches in Serie A.<figure data-asset-id="b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90" data-image-id="b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/4cbcaa16-bcbc-4c80-b23b-eebbd9ce2f63/Sito_HERO_juv_mba.png" data-asset-id="b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90" data-image-id="b51e8c43-48f6-4d80-b4a2-9ba6394ecf90" alt=""></figure>Ranieri&nbsp;celebrated his 100th Serie A game coached with&nbsp;Roma&nbsp;in the best possible way, bringing the Capitolini back to winning ways after a few difficult months. The Giallorossi overwhelmed Lecce at the Stadio Olimpico:&nbsp;Saelemaekers, his first one wearing the new shirt, put Roma ahead, but that was neutralised in the 40th minute by a penalty from Krstović. In the second half,&nbsp;Mancini,&nbsp;Pisilli&nbsp;and&nbsp;Koné&nbsp;made it 4-1, sealing a performance of character that reconciled team and fans. Mancini, who scored his eleventh goal for the Giallorossi, all on home soil, and El Shaarawy, who provided two assists, were among the stars. For&nbsp;Lecce, on the other hand, it was a small step backwards after the victory in Venezia and the draw with Juventus with Giampaolo in charge.<figure data-asset-id="709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244" data-image-id="709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/b0298594-e120-47f9-94b3-ebf12bc98eff/Sito_HERO_rom.png" data-asset-id="709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244" data-image-id="709a71f4-df24-4ba7-bc31-9c6f07b9d244" alt=""></figure>In the Sunday lunch match,&nbsp;Fiorentina&nbsp;secured a 1-0 win over Cagliari, with a goal from&nbsp;Cataldi. In a hard-fought match, it was the ex-Laziale who scored the decider from the edge of the box, well served by Beltrán`s fourth assist of the season: among the players with at least five goals from 2016 onwards in Serie A, the Fiorentina midfielder has the highest percentage of goals&nbsp;from outside the box&nbsp;(9/11). For the Viola, it is the&nbsp;eighth&nbsp;consecutive&nbsp;victory, a&nbsp;historical recordthat keeps Palladino`s team near the top of the standings. Cagliari, for their part, remain stuck in 15th place.<figure data-asset-id="7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc" data-image-id="7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/6744db19-6517-4421-90a8-86b49ddaa3d7/HL.png" data-asset-id="7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc" data-image-id="7d172591-3a04-49c6-8ebf-d37be1a564cc" alt=""></figure>The&nbsp;Bentegodi&nbsp;was the scene of a resounding feat by Empoli, who demolished Verona 4-1 in the first half and achieved their first win in four matches. Undisputed star of the match was&nbsp;Sebastiano Esposito, who scored his first&nbsp;brace&nbsp;in Serie A and his fourth goal in the league, all from away matches. One of the goals was scored by&nbsp;Cacace, the first New Zealander to score in the top league, and&nbsp;Colombo.&nbsp;Verona, who found the consolation goal with Tengstedt, suffered their fourth defeat in a row, further complicating their fight for safety.<figure data-asset-id="2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9" data-image-id="2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/68d82c72-afbf-4eb4-a5b7-e25b5ba6c3da/HL.png" data-asset-id="2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9" data-image-id="2693155a-9092-414f-849d-5ddbf51844f9" alt=""></figure>Under the blizzard,&nbsp;Venezia&nbsp;and&nbsp;Como&nbsp;ended a heart-stopping match at 2-2. The Lagunari got ahead with&nbsp;Nicolussi Caviglia`s third goal of the season, but an own goal by&nbsp;Candela&nbsp;and a rocket by&nbsp;Belotti&nbsp;overturned the result. In the final minutes,&nbsp;Oristanio&nbsp;gave the crowd a moment of rare beauty with an&nbsp;Olimpico&nbsp;from a corner kick. Before this, the last player to score directly from a corner had been Juan Cuadrado in the Juventus shirt against Genoa in December 2021. Venezia conceded another own goal, their third of the tournament, and remain last in the standings, while Como were unbeaten in two away matches in a row for the first time but are still in search of victory.<figure data-asset-id="9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02" data-image-id="9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/99e6eb3e-18f4-4b2c-b539-67d59a398c20/HL.png" data-asset-id="9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02" data-image-id="9f93ae35-49a7-473e-b3bf-fadbb2894f02" alt=""></figure>Lazio&nbsp;won the big match at the Maradona with a narrow victory, the sixth with a one-goal difference for Baroni`s team this season.&nbsp;Isaksen&nbsp;scored the decisive goal with a surgical finish, giving the Biancocelesti three very important points at the end of a balanced and hard-fought match. The Capitolini thus confirmed their excellent form with six wins in their last seven matches. For Napoli, it was the second home defeat in three matches, showing a moment of slight difficulty for Conte`s men, especially in the attack, with only three goals to their credit in the last five games - currently the seventh worst attack in Serie A.<figure data-asset-id="e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9" data-image-id="e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/b188f181-c87d-4eec-8b73-acc6db9edcb6/HL.png" data-asset-id="e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9" data-image-id="e8005773-e6d9-4b1a-8482-246aa2c916a9" alt=""></figure>The curtain fell on matchday 15 with&nbsp;Udinese`s victory away at the U-Power Stadium in Monza, who returned to success after five games without victories.
