Lazio's Felipe Anderson, Luis Alberto and Pedro secured a 3-1 home victory over Inter Milan, climbing to the summit of Serie A on Friday.
The visitors dropped their first points of the season on coach Simone Inzaghi's return to his old club.
Lazio had two great chances through captain Ciro Immobile and a third from striker Mattia Zaccagni before Anderson - perfectly set up by Sergej Milinkovic-Savic - put the hosts ahead with a header in the 40th minute at the Stadio Olimpico.
The visitors equalised from a free kick as defender Denzel Dumfries nodded the ball to the unmarked Lautaro Martinez who netted from close range in the 51st minute.
However, substitute Alberto restored the lead for Lazio with a sublime strike from distance in the 75th minute, while Spain forward Pedro made it 3-1 before the final whistle.
Lazio are provisionally top with seven points from three games, while Inter are a point behind in fourth place.
The Rome-based club face Sampdoria in their next Serie A match on Wednesday, while Inter take on Cremonese at the San Siro a day earlier.
