Rome, Sep 4 (Ians) Inter Milan maintained their flawless record in Serie A, overpowering Fiorentina 4-0 while Juventus secured a 2-0 victory against Empoli on the road.
Inter, having started the new season with two wins and no goals conceded, saw coach Simone Inzaghi deploy a 3-5-2 formation for Sunday’s match. Newcomer Benjamin Pavard started on the bench, reports Xinhua.
Marcus Thuram was active from the outset and eventually got his maiden goal for Inter in the 23rd minute, capitalising on a cross from Federico Dimarco. The Frenchman broke the deadlock with a powerful header.
Denzel Dumfries nearly scored just after halftime, but his shot struck the post. However, the Nerazzurri soon doubled their lead when Thuram’s pass found Lautaro Martinez, who confidently found the back of the net. The hosts further extended their lead in the 58th minute. After Thuram was fouled in the box, Hakan Calhanoglu confidently converted the resulting penalty.

Bergamo (Italy), Nov 13 (Ians) Edin Dzeko struck a double as Inter Milan ended their Serie A engagements before the FIFA World Cup break the way they would have liked it — with a hard-fought 3-2 win against Atalanta.
While Dzeko scored a brace on his 250th Serie A appearance, Palomino scored at both ends and Onana made some important saves in the Nerazzurri goal as Inter survived some anxious moments before the emerging winner.
With Rafael Toloi picking up an injury in the warm-up, Jose Luis Palomino took his place in the Atalanta starting line-up and went on to be heavily involved in a match that the hosts started aggressively.
Gasperini’s side went man-to-man all over the pitch, playing with a really high press. It was enough to prevent Inter from putting any kind of dangerous moves together, at least in the first 30 minutes.
In the opening period, Onana excelled,...

Rome, March 22 (Ians) Juventus's hopes of winning the Serie A title took a major hit after a morale-sapping 1-0 home defeat to Benevento, as Arthur Melo's howler allowed the newly-promoted side to leave Allianz Stadium with all three points.
It was the second time that Juve dropped points against Filippo Inzaghi's side this season, after they played out a 1-1 draw earlier in the season, Xinhua news agency reported.
With Paulo Dybala, Aaron Ramsey and Alex Sandro injured, Federico Bernardeschi started at left-back, while Cristiano Ronaldo partnered Alvaro Morata upfront during the game on Sunday.
Juve dominated possession from the beginning but failed to break down a compact Benevento defense, with an effort from Ronaldo chalked off after the Portuguese had wandered offside in the build-up.
The away side took a shock lead in the 69th minute as Arthur's weak square-pass in his own half was intercepted by...

Rome, March 8 (Ians) A pair of stunners from Rade Krunic and Diogo Dalot helped AC Milan cement second place in the Serie A table, as the Rossoneri won 2-0 away to Hellas Verona.
An injury crisis was taking its toll on Milan, as coach Stefano Pioli had to do without Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Mario Mandzukic, Hakan Calhanoglu, Ante Rebic and Ismael Bennacer. Rafael Leao continued his makeshift center-forward role, while Rade Krunic started as a trequartista.
The home side was close to breaking the deadlock on Sunday in the ninth minute as Fikayo Tomori's howler allowed Kevin Lasagna to loop the ball over an on-rushing Gianluigi Donnarumma, but Alessio Romagnoli made an decisive clearance, while at the other end Leao saw his header fly over the bar, Xinhua news agency reports.

Rome, Jan 19 (Ians) Zlatan Ibrahimovic's double helped AC Milan enjoy a 2-0 victory away to Cagliari in their latest encounter, despite Alexis Saelemaekers's red card.
With Rafael Leao suspended, and Theo Hernandez and Hakan Calhanoglu having tested positive for Covid-19, Milan on Monday evening started with Diogo Dalot and Jens Hauge, while Brahim Diaz roamed behind Ibrahimovic, reports Xinhua news agency.
The Rossoneri broke the deadlock just seven minutes into the game as Ibrahimovic was brought down in the box. The Swede kept his composure to convert the spot-kick.
The away side doubled the lead in the 52nd minute as Davide Calabria's cross-field ball found Ibrahimovic, who turned in from point-blank range.
The goal was initially ruled out for offside, but a Var check overturned the decision.
The downside for the Diavolo was Saelemaekers's sending off, with the Belgian collecting two yellow cards just eight minutes after coming on as a substitute.
