The carousel of international football commitments was presenting more than suggestive matchups during this weekend. On Sunday, we had already enjoyed a giant clash in the Premier League between Liverpool and Chelsea. However, it was time to head to Italy for another stop on the calendar for the team that reigned undisputed in the Scudetto last season.
Specifically, Inter Milan is determined to do everything in their power to once again savor the sweetness of victory in the transalpine tournament. That said, the competition will be incredibly fierce for Simone Inzaghi’s squad, with giants like Napoli, Juventus, and AC Milan—all among others—competing for glory. Indeed, this round they would face one of the traditional powerhouses of Serie A.
Of course, this is because the Lombardy side traveled to the Olimpico stadium to test AS Roma in front of their demanding fans. A match that, at least on paper, was predicted to be quite evenly matched between both contenders. The Nerazzurri would take the initiative, going ahead thanks to Lautaro Martínez, who finished off a textbook counterattack. Moreover, this goal would prove decisive in securing a narrow victory for Inter in the Giallorossi’s stronghold.
Here’s how the Serie A standings look.
