The Curva Sud section sat unoccupied for the initial 15 minutes of the match, and when the supporters finally appeared, they voiced their discontent by labeling the players as "shameful" while urging the American ownership of RedBird to sell the team.

This marked the Rossoneri's third consecutive loss in the league, causing them to slip to ninth place in the standings, now 17 points adrift of city rivals and league leaders, Inter Milan.

Additionally, they were eliminated from the Champions League play-offs by Feyenoord the previous month.

"We talked about the atmosphere, and it's the first time I've faced this in my career. Errors feel more significant in such an environment," Conceicao expressed to DAZN.

"I was once a player, and I understand how it feels when the pressure mounts. Your boots feel as though they are on fire. Every failed dribble or pass when trailing intensifies that feeling."

Lazio took the lead during the first half thanks to Mattia Zaccagni, but Samuel Chukwueze equalized for the home team after Strahinja Pavlovic received a red card.

Nevertheless, Pedro, a former Chelsea player, scored the decisive goal from the penalty spot in the eighth minute of stoppage time for the visitors.

"It’s a challenging period," Conceicao remarked. "The players sense the pressure surrounding the club.

"The only route to improvement is through hard work, taking pride in our colors, and making efforts to turn things around."
