Inter Milan had the opportunity to regain first place in the standings ahead of the city’s other club, AC Milan, against Bologna during this 17th day of Serie A. At Giuseppe Meazza, Cristian Chivu’s men took things in hand before the end of the first period through Piotr Zieliński (39th). It all started with Marcus Thuram who resisted John Lucumi to heel Lautaro Martínez deep. The Argentine striker then served the Pole to finish perfectly. A few moments later, Martinez came up against Federico Ravaglia, saving once again (45th). Short advantage at the break for the Interists.
Returning from the locker room, the anger of the Milanese was once again present, and the Argentine star of the Lombard team did not hesitate to strike to widen the gap. Not on a long shot, but on a powerful header from six meters (48th). Marcus Thuram also participated in the party, with a shoulder which ended in the top corner on a corner perfectly struck by Federico Dimarco (74th). Trailing, but not defeated, the visitors still saved the day thanks to Santiago Castro’s goal with a tackle to deceive Yann Sommer in the last minutes (83rd). The score then did not change to the delight of the Serie A leaders. After their narrow victory against Atalanta Bergamo (0-1), Inter continued their marathon and remained first. Three points pocketed, three goals scored, and the scores are good for the Nerazzurri.
