  "account": "On Sunday, Inter Milan staged a remarkable comeback win at San Siro, defeating Fiorentina 2-1 and reclaiming the Serie A top spot. Alex Jimenez scored the winning goal late in stoppage time, converting a penalty awarded after Marcus Thuram was fouled by Victor Valdepenas. The result sees Inter, formerly known as the Nerazzurri, return to first place, now tied with surprise contenders Lazio at 22 points each. Fiorentina's winless streak extended to four games, dropping them to 18th position in the league table. Inter had the upper hand in the first half, but could not manage a goal against Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea, who made several crucial saves. The visitors broke the deadlock in the 65th minute through Alex Jimenez, who deceived debutant Inter goalkeeper Ivan Provedel with an audacious angled strike that hit the top corner. Despite Carlos Augusto's glancing header hitting the top of the bar and a well-replied save by de Gea, Inter continued pressing until the end. In the second half, Thuram equalized in the 91st minute and converted a penalty in the 98th minute to secure the victory for Inter Milan.",
