Two games in less than a week between Inter Milan and Fiorentina and one everywhere in the end. On February 6, the two teams clashed for the first time during a reported match of the fourteenth day of Serie A. A meeting widely won by Viola (3-0). But four days later, Inter took his revenge and won in Giuseppe Meazza (2-1, 24th day). A success that allows Nerazzurri to return to a point from the Neapolitan leader.
The Milanese opened the mark on a corner that they should not have been granted. An arbitral error which caused the Fiorentina to wrongly, which therefore conceded a first goal, a work of one of its own players, in this case the unfortunate sailor Pongracic (1-0, 28th). A few seconds earlier, Inter saw Marcus Thuram get out on injury. A blow followed by another with Florentine equalization a few minutes before the break, on a penalty transformed by Rolando Mandragora after a hand of Matteo Darmian in his surface (1-1, 44th).
Arnautovic takes advantage of the windfall
Upon returning from the locker room, the locals took over the management of the game and logically took over the lead at the time of the goal scored by the replacement for Marcus Thuram, Marko Arnautovic (2-1, 52nd). An advantage that the Inter will not let go a second time in this part, thus spinning towards a sixteenth success in this season of Serie A.
This victory allows the men of Simone Inzaghi to widen the gap on their first pursuer, the Atalanta, but which especially offers them a return to the wheels of the Napoli, with only a unit of delay. The scudetto race is once again relaunched.
