The Nerazzurri are back in second place and close to Napoli
Inter beat on home field with minimal score Venice in the match of the 11th round of the Italian Serie A – 1:0.
The outsider managed to hold out the first half. At the very beginning of the second, Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored, but his goal was canceled due to offside. Lautaro Martinez soon took on the usual role of goalscorer – taking advantage of Federico Dimarco’s pass, he scored according to the rules.
Venice had few chances of salvation, but she did not use them. The hosts, who improved their attack after the break, also failed to convert a number of good chances.
The underdog seemed to have hit the jackpot late into stoppage time. Martin Sverko equalized, but VAR canceled the goal due to handball.
The difficult victory allowed the Nerazzurri to return to second place in the standings. Now Inter is just a point behind Napoli, which was defeated at home by Atalanta today (0:3). Venice remained in the relegation zone with eight points – in 18th place.
Next Sunday we will have a duel for first place between the teams of Simone Inzaghi and Antonio Conte. But before that, Inter will have to play in the Champions League – against Arsenal, also at home, on November 6.
