Overview

  • Inter Milan's 2-0 win at Torino brings them level with Napoli at 77 points in the Serie A standings with two games remaining.
  • Nicola Zalewski scored his first goal for Inter, and Kristjan Asllani converted a penalty to seal the victory after Torino goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic fouled Mehdi Taremi.
  • The match was halted twice: first for a fan's fall from the stands, reportedly resulting in no serious injuries, and later due to torrential rain making the pitch unplayable.
  • Inter, managing fatigue from their Champions League semi-final, made nine lineup changes and secured only their second away win in eight league matches.
  • Napoli needs seven points from their final three games against Genoa, Parma, and Cagliari to avoid a title-deciding playoff and claim their second Scudetto in three seasons.
