Lazio boss Edy Reja denies taking a pop at AS Roma on the weekend.

Reja caused controversy by arguing that 'many other factors' will determine whether Lazio finish fourth, not just their own form.

"It has all been exaggerated," he said. "I simply said that Roma have been lucky.

"In Udine, for example, they could have gone behind, but instead found a decisive goal in the 95th minute.

"In short, they are good and they are fortunate."
