In their final sprint, INTER MILAN’ did not say their last! The Lombards showed
excellent mental powers to win at home against Empoli on the thirty-sixth day of
Serie A. (4-2). With a 2-0 lead in the 28th minute of play, Simone Inzaghi’s men
gave themselves a chance to win this match owing to a strong offensive force
led by Lautaro Martinez, who scored twice. Inter briefly takes the lead in the Italian league
with this new victory, putting pressure on AC Milan, who visit the Hellas Verona turf this
Sunday. One thing is certain: stopping Inter from succeeding will be extremely difficult.
Simone Inzaghi could rely on shining statistics before starting this match versus Empoli.
Since his debut as a coach, the Italian had won all of his seven Serie A matches against the
Tuscans. However, the former Lazio mechanic quickly recognized that this ninth opus
would be everything but easy. Former Inter center-forward Andrea Pinamonti took
advantage of a cross from Szymon urkowski to open the scoring with a brilliant deflection
following a tackle in the first minutes of the game (5th, 0-1). inter became more incisive
as a result of his pride, but Denzel Dumfries saw Guglielmo Vicario begin his festival
(22nd). Empoli’s icing on the cake:
IN THE FACE OF INTER MILAN’ 37 SHOTS, VICARIO DID WHAT HE COULD
Certainly, Inter has recovered in the direction of travel and has never doubted its potential
to come back to score despite being mathematically second in Serie A two points behind AC
Milan with one game more. However, Federico Di Marco pushed Simone Romagnoli to the
brink with an own goal from the left flank (40th, 1-2). Likely Empoli conceded a second goal
right before the halftime after a recovery from Lautaro Martinez on a Hakan alhanolu effort
(45th, 2-2). Despite a fifteen-minute break, Vicario salvaged the day by diverting the
recovery of Ivan Perisic (45th + 2), but the Milanese heat never left the enclosure again.
Despite a series of remarkable stops from Vicario ahead of Perisic (50th), Di Marco (52nd),
alhanolu (62nd), Dumfries (63rd), and Martinez (64th), the Tuscan goalkeeper was unable to
prevent Inter from conceding the vital third goal, allowing Inter to win at home. Martinez
offered himself a double with a new powerful recovery, driving the interist public insane
(66th, 3-2). Inter will have scored 37 goals in all, with 10 shots on target! Vicario kept the
damage to a minimum, but the nerazzurra tornado was too powerful tonight. After entering
the game, Edin Dzeko hit the post (92nd) before setting up Alexis Sanchez for the game-
winning goal (94th, 4-2). This Inter is just too powerful.
