Inter joins the leaders, winning with a lot of luck and little merit in Venezia, only unblocking the match in the last 10 minutes thanks to an own goal. Milan falls at San Siro, suffering a poker from Bologna, which overturned the match from 2-1 to 2-4 thanks to a hat-trick from Mbangula. In the next match, a goalless draw between Parma and Udinese.
MILAN 2-4 BOLOGNA
Milan suffers a heavy defeat at home to Bologna, which celebrates at the “San Siro” with a 4-2 victory. The absolute protagonist of the evening was Mbangula, author of a hat-trick. It seems incredible, but the Rossoneri closed the first half with a 2-1 advantage, thanks to Cissé's brace, after the first goal of the guests scored precisely by Mbangula. In the second half, Palladino won the match through substitutions. Milan was also overthrown due to Bartesaghi's own goal. On the eve of the derby, the Rossoneri are now seven points behind Inter and Lazio, who lead the standings.
VENICE 0-2 INTER
In life, you need a little luck. Inter got the three points, as expected, in the transfer to Venezia, but luck also had its influence on this success. The team of the technician Nicola was developing a perfect match until the 80th minute, when Moreno scored an own goal. Two minutes later, Halhal also had his influence on the goal action, although the goal can also be attributed to Carlos Augusto, after developing a corner kick. Chivu wins, but not completely convincingly. Inter goes to the quota of 25 points and equals Lazio at the top of Serie A, while Roma remains four points behind.
PARMA 0-0 UDINESE
The winless streak for Parma and Udinese continues. At the Tardini Stadium, neither team managed to break the deadlock and, in the ninth week, the second 0-0 draw of the season in Serie A was recorded. This result brings both teams to the quota of five points in the standings. The protagonist of the match was Maduka Okoye, who saved a penalty against Bernabé and kept the goal intact for the first time in the championship. Thus, Gilardino secures the first point since his arrival on the Parma bench, while Udinese gets a positive result after six consecutive defeats. However, they have been missing a victory in Serie A since August 29.
