Of course, there is no shortage of emotions at San Siro, where Federico Dimarco (as a substitute after injury) assisted in the victory that overturned his team. Inter starts the match against Udinese in the worst possible way, but then wakes up and wins 5-3: thus equalizing Roma on 12 points, while Chivu and Gasp are at the top with equal points, before the direct confrontation. As had happened against Real Madrid, the start is shocking for the nigreni, who literally benefit from an "academic quarter of an hour" and leave space for Udinese. Martinez misreads the trajectory of Abankwah's header (8') and, after Thuram's chance to equalize, stopped by a great save by Okoye, actually causes the second goal. The mistake of the former Genoa player is very serious, with a real blunder that paves the way for Ekkelenkamp to make it 2-0 (16'). Kolarov is sent off for protesting and San Siro comes alive again, supporting a team that finds itself at a double disadvantage for the third consecutive match.
Inter thus returned to the game and reopened the match with a beautiful left-footed shot by Carlos Augusto (26'), then equalized with a persistent Barella: he fell, got up and sent the ball into Okoye's net for 2-2 (35'). The Blues came close to the lead three times before the break, but without success, and then took the lead in the 57th minute: Ebosse lost Thuram, who scored for 3-2 after an assist from Diouf. Chivu was forced to replace Stones, injured, but in the 67th minute he celebrated again: Zielinski inspired Pio Esposito and poker came. The match was finally overturned and Bonny and Dimarco could also return to the field, while the Frenchman scored the fifth goal in the 79th minute with a tap-in. Only at the end do the neroli slow down, conceding their sixth goal of the season: Martinez is again uncertain and Gueye scores for the final score of 5-3. Inter thus obtains a landslide victory and returns to the top along with Roma: the two teams, who lead by 12 points, will face each other on Saturday at 18:00. Meanwhile, Udinese remains on 4 points, again positive at San Siro despite the defeat.
TURIN 0-2 ROME
Roma wins and convinces, despite a second half played with a lack of oxygen. Gasperini and his team immediately put the draw against Fenerbahce behind them, defeating Torino 2-0 and remaining at the top of Serie A with full points: 12 points out of a possible 12 and four consecutive victories, before the long-awaited direct confrontation with Inter. The yellow and reds immediately push forward, against a Torino struggling in attack and forced to advance Vlasic next to Cholito Simeone. Malen is dangerous on two occasions, Lulli exerts pressure on the right wing and Roma's advantage is canceled. Mandragora tests Svilar's reflexes in the other half of the field, but in the 40th minute the yellows' goal comes: another assist from Dybala and the sixth goal in four weeks for Malen, increasingly the leading scorer.
In the second half, Abate changes the scheme and his Torino initially takes risks, with Molina close to doubling the lead, but then wakes up: Simeone and Bragança create chances to equalize. Gasperini also intervenes and, in extra time, Roma finally ends the match with the decisive shot of the exhausted Pisilli. Thus comes 2-0 for Roma, which leads Serie A with 12 points and sees everyone from above: Torino remains behind, with 3 points and only one victory in the account.
COMO 2-1 PARMA
Como's journey continues, remaining unbeaten after four weeks. Fabregas makes the necessary rotation after the Champions League and activates Moise Kean as the starter, who nevertheless fails to leave his mark in the 2-1 victory over Parma. The former Fiorentina player is the most dangerous at the beginning, but fails to break through the yellow-blue defense. Nico Paz and Yan Couto also try, approaching the advantage, which comes in the 23rd minute: the fantasy player's shot-pass and Jacobo Ramon's winning deflection, 1-0. Former player Diego Carlos approaches the equalizer, as does Lontani, but the score does not change and the first half ends with the white-blue advantage.
In the second half, Britschgi approaches the equalizer and Cuesta activates Romero, Pellegrino's substitute, but again it is Como who scores after a long pressure. The credit goes to Kaiki, who scores with a tap into the empty net after Corvi had blocked the shot to Douvikas, more dangerous than Kean in the last half hour. The Larians do not stop there and approach the third goal with Milla and Yan Couto, then slow down the pace: Romero can reduce the difference in the 91st minute, with his first goal in Serie A. However, Fabregas celebrates, who follows the leader with 10 points: Como is 2 points behind Roma and equal points with Lazio. While Parma stops again and has only one point in the standings after the fourth week.
