Italian Cup: Inter are scared but finally eliminate Parma and Gianluigi Buffon in the round of 16

Inter Milan, pushed into overtime by a valiant Parma team, snatched (2-1 ap) Tuesday its ticket for the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup. The defending champion, who will be opposed to Atalanta or La Spezia in the next round, had all the trouble in the world for his entry into the competition to repel the 6th in Serie B, reassured by the return of Buffon who had not not played since October 1st.

It was even Juric, who entered a few minutes earlier, who, against all odds, opened the scoring (26) for the visitors. Dominating but not very dangerous with a team deprived of many executives (Lukaku, Brozovic, Handanovic absent), the men of Simone Inzaghi pushed awkwardly and waited for the last moments to equalize thanks to Martinez (88), while elimination was pointing his nose . Back in the saddle, the Nerazzurri then won the decision by taking advantage of the freshness of the substitute Acerbi (110).
