Lazio came from behind to beat Udinese 2-1 at the Bluenergy Stadium on Monday evening, with Davide Frattesi and Albert Gudmundsson scoring in the final 15 minutes to maintain the Biancocelesti's 100% start to the Serie A season.
The hosts looked on course for victory after Jesper Karlstrom opened the scoring shortly after half-time, but Lazio responded strongly and turned the game around late on.
There were chances at both ends during an evenly contested first half. Udinese goalkeeper Maduka Okoye produced an excellent save to deny Mattia Zaccagni 's free-kick, while Christos Mandas was also called into action to keep out efforts from Keinan Davis and Hassane Kamara .

Both sides were forced into injury changes, with Udinese losing Jakub Piotrowski and Oumar Solet . Lazio also suffered a blow when summer signing Andrea Pinamonti was forced off in the 53rd minute, with Tijjani Noslin replacing him.
Karlstrom broke the deadlock four minutes after the restart, finishing from inside the box after being picked out by Davis.
Lazio eventually found their equaliser in the 75th minute. Zaccagni played the ball into Frattesi, who had found space inside the area and made no mistake with a first-time finish into the roof of the net.
The Italy international was then replaced by Gudmundsson five minutes later, and the substitute made an immediate impact.
With just a minute remaining, Gudmundsson fired Lazio into the lead to complete a dramatic comeback and secure all three points for Gennaro Gattuso's side.
