Inter Milan Triumphs Over Juventus in Serie A Clash: Takes Top Spot

Inter stands out at the top of Serie A. Winners by the smallest of margins 1 goal to 0 from their runner-up Juventus of Turin this Sunday evening in the match at the top of the 23rd day of the Italian championship, the Interists achieved a excellent operation in the ranking. Now four points ahead of the Turinese and still one more match to go, Simone Inzaghi’s players strike a big blow in the race for the championship title.

Almost complete for this Serie A shock (only Juan Guillermo Cuadrado was missing from the nerazzuri ranks due to injury), Inter Milan quickly took the measure of a Turin team well withdrawn into itself but long timid in his offensive inclinations. Having come very close to opening the score shortly before the half-hour mark thanks to Marcus Thuram (24th), the Habs stumbling on Bremer’s saving return, the Milanese patiently bided their time to finally crack the Turin defense around ten minutes later.

Thuram pushed Gatti to make a mistake

Clever on a worked cross from Nicolo Barella at the far post, Marcus Thuram pushed the unfortunate Federico Gatti (36th, 1-0) to deceive his own goalkeeper with his chest. Logically in front at the break, the Interists had the opportunity to drive home the point after returning from the locker room, but the post on a magnificent right volley from Hakan Calhanoglu (56th) and a doubly decisive Wojciech Szczesny on a volley from Nicolo Barella (68th) first then on a flat foot at close range from the incoming Marko Arnautovic (86th) prevented Simone Inzaghi’s men from taking off on the scoreboard.

Can Mbappé really announce his departure in February? “If there is a player who breaks the codes…”

Further put in difficulty in the second half by a Turin team finally decided to boldly go all out, Inter nevertheless maintained their clean sheet to the delight of the 78,000 spectators present in the Giuseppe Meazza bays. Victorious for the eighteenth time this season in Serie A, the Interists achieved a fourth consecutive success in the championship which allows them not only to total 57 points in the standings, but also to open wide the doors to a twentieth scudetto.
