Inter needs late effort from Thuram in Serie A. Real Madrid visits Barcelona in the clasico
Rome witnessed a thrilling Serie A match between Inter Milan and Fiorentina at San Siro on Sunday, with the Nerazzurri staging a breathtaking comeback to reclaim the top spot in the league. After Alex Jimenez's early goal secured a surprising lead for the visitors, Inter fought back to level the scores and eventually triumph in stoppage time.
Marcus Thuram’s equalizer came in the 91st minute, followed by a penalty awarded after he was fouled by Victor Valdepenas, which Piotr Zielinski converted in the 98th minute. As a result, Inter Milan climbed back to first place, sharing the lead with Lazio, while Fiorentina's winless streak extended to four games, dropping them to 18th spot in the table.
Despite Inter's dominant first-half performance, they struggled to break through Fiorentina's defense, with goalkeeper David de Gea making several key saves to thwart the attacking duo of Alex Jimenez and Carlos Augusto. De Gea also denied substitute Petar Sucic with a crucial fingertip stop and thwarted a powerful strike from Thuram.
The win solidified Inter Milan's position at the top of the Serie A standings, while Fiorentina's struggles continued, leaving them with a challenging road ahead in the league.
