Gennaro Gattuso's reign as Lazio coach got off to a miserable start on Sunday as last season's finalists exited the Italian Cup with a 2-0 home defeat by second-tier Mantova
As an AC Milan player between 1999 and 2012, Gattuso won two Serie A titles and two Champions League trophies, but he has yet to reach similar heights as a coach.
The 2006 World Cup winner has also managed Fiorentina, Valencia, Napoli and Marseille.
Lazio were the only one of the 12 Serie A clubs competing in the last 64 of the tournament to be knocked out.
Seven-time Italian Cup winners, Lazio lost last season'snal to Inter Milan in May.
