(time.news) – Juventus beat Inter 1-0 in the match valid for the 27th day of Serie A 2022-2023. The bianconeri go to San Siro thanks to a goal by Kostic and rise to 41 points (with 15 penalties) leaving the nerazzurri in third place with 50 points.
THE MATCH – A tense, hard-fought game with great Nerazzurri possession but the best chances were created by Allegri’s team who chose Vlahovic in attack from the 1st minute supported by Soulè, with Fagioli in midfield, De Sciglio from fifth on the right with Gatti on the line defensive. Inzaghi, given the absences of Bastoni and Skriniar, opts for a defense formed by Darmian, De Vrij and Acerbi. In attack Lukaku paired with Lautaro.
Inter got off to a good start and in the 3rd minute Barella’s powerful right from the edge arrived but Szczesny punched back. In the 18th minute the Nerazzurri midfielder was still dangerous, a triangle in the area with Lukaku, and a right-footed shot again rejected by Szczesny. Tense, physical match, with many duels on the pitch. At the first real lunge in the 23rd minute Juventus found the goal. Rabiot opens for Kostic on the restart, the winger lets go of a diagonal that slips into the far post, where Onana doesn’t arrive: 1-0. After the check by the Var for an alleged touch of the hand by Rabiot and Vlahovic at the beginning of the goal action, the goal is validated. In the first half finale, in the 41st minute, the black and whites were still dangerous: Fagioli’s cross for Kostic at the far post which was anticipated by Barella. A minute later Lukaku tries to head but the ball goes wide.

At the beginning of the second half Inter went forward again, Dimarco found the body on a cross from the right and De Sciglio deflected the ball to Brozovic in the area who kicked high. Inter pushed and Juve found more and more space: in the 53rd minute Kostic was always dangerous, a low cross for Vlahovic with Darmian closing in for a corner. In the 58th minute it is Vlahovic who kicks weakly. Shortly after Locatelli also tries but the right is blocked in two strokes by Onana. Inter have possession of the ball but fail to break through and in the 73rd minute Chiesa tries, who has just entered and flies away and finishes from the edge with no luck.
Inzaghi’s team is unbalanced and leaves ample space for the Juventus forwards. In the 76th minute Kostic sinks but Acerbi intercepts, then Vlahovic but Onana touches the ball just enough to anticipate Locatelli. Chiesa feels pain and is forced to leave Paredes early in his place while Inter are front-wheel drive with Dzeko and Correa entering to support Lautaro, but the tempting opportunity in the 86th minute arrives at Mkhitaryan’s feet who sends to the side. The Armenian midfielder tries to fly in the 93rd minute but still shoots high. Convulsive final and end of game with Paredes and D’Ambrosio expelled.
