Inter managed to register a victory in the ninth round of Serie A and thus get closer to the top of the table after celebrating against Sassuolo with 2:1!
Simone Inzaghi’s players continued their winning streak after a big victory in the Champions League against Barca.
It didn’t look like that would be the case at the start of the match.
The home team first threatened in the 4th minute through Fratesi, who sent a very awkward shot towards the visitors’ goal, but Onana reacted masterfully.
This was followed by the Nerazzurri’s response to this attack by Sassuolo in the 10th minute when Lautaro Martinez threatened to score from a great position, but the ball flew past the post.
After a somewhat calmer period without too much excitement, the silence was broken by Edin Dzeko! Inter attacker found himself in the right place and headed the ball into the net for 1:0 in the 44th minute, which set the final result of the first part of the game! This is also the hundredth goal of the experienced striker in Serie A!
The second half brought us a little more excitement.
In the 60th minute, Sassuolo equalized. Rogerio sent an excellent pass into the penalty area, Fratesi ran into the ball and knocked it into the opponent’s net for 1:1!
In the continuation of the game, Inter tried in every way to regain the advantage.
First, Martinez sent a header toward the home team’s goal from close range, but the goalkeeper was in the right place.
However, they did not manage to withstand the onslaught of Inter visitors until the end of the match, so the decisive goal fell in the 75th minute. Miktarjan crossed, and the ball was caught by Dzeko’s head for the second goal in this match!
Until the end of the match, there was not too much excitement and Inter deservedly won with a score of 2:1!
