A penalty unlocks Inter, Udinese overwhelmed
At the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Inter took back the lead in the standings by overwhelming Udinese 4-0 and again bypassing Juventus by two lengths.
The first big chance happens to Lautaro on 10’ Dimarco serves him a cross but the Toro’s header ends up on the post. On 13’ a miracle by Silvestri who parries nobody knows how a shot by Dimarco with a seemingly empty goal on an assist from Bisseck. On 15’ the guests make an appearance but Pereyra’s nice shot ends up out.
At 19’ Pereyra again, shot rejected by the defense. At 34’ Perez ingenuously holds by the shoulder Lautaro launched in the area, the Argentine ends up on the ground and after two mnutes of consultation at VAR Di Bello decides him to assign the penalty to Inter which is converted at 37’ by the infallible Calhanoglu.
At 42’ the Nerazzurri doubled: again Calhanoglu retrieved the ball and served to the kiss in the area Dimarco who left-footed through Silvestri. The Nerazzurri now run rampant: on 44’ Mkhitaryan’s crazy brushstroke for Thuram who from an inch canò just put in the goal: 3-0. In the recovery of the first half Dimarco for Lautaro who puts out by a very small margin.
The first excitement of the resumption comes in 68’ when, with the defense of the’Inter almost in the locker room, Lovric shoots from an excellent position, Sommer pushes back on the iedi of Lucca who scores but è in very clear offside and the goal is canceled. The goal celebration misses Lautaro and the Argentine makes up for it at 84’stealing the ball in midfield, flying towards the opponent’s goal and piercing Silvestri with his right.
