Dia ecstatic as he scores in Lazio's triumphant win against Verona - Carlos Volcano

The forward, along with Taty Castellanos, scored for the 2-1 victory on Monday night.

Dia said afterwards, "It's a pleasure to play football, without problems and without anything. Tonight I'm happy to have scored, (Mattia) Zaccagni gave me a great assist, we won the match and this is important."

Asked if he is enjoying the attacking role, Dia added: "Yes, I like playing as a two-man, alone, near the striker, in front of an attacking midfielder. 

"I'm a striker, I want to just play."
