Asllani and Sanchez send Inter to +15
Inter-Genoa 2-1
In the last postponement of the 27th day of Serie A, Inter's 2-1 win over Genoa clinched their ninth consecutive victory and stretched to +15 over Juventus in the standings. Asllani opened the scoring on 31' with his first goal in the Nerazzurri, followed by Sanchez’s 2-0 on a penalty kick on 37'. Genoa shortened the gap with Vasquez at 54', but failed to equalize despite their efforts.
The match began with bland rhythms, with Inter pressing but Genoa closing the spaces. The most dangerous chances come on 23' with Barella for Inter and on 25' with Gudmundsson for Genoa. Asllani scored the first goal at the opening of a chasm in the opponent’s defense, followed by Sanchez’s penalty.
In the second half, Genoa tried to respond with an aggressive attitude but Inter remained firmly in control. Despite a goal disallowed for offside at the 21', Genoa failed to equalize, while Inter risked little until the triple whistle, bringing home another important victory.
