Genoa 1-2 Inter Milan – Cristian Chivu Seizes Opportunity As Nerazzurri Return To The Top Of Serie A

Inter Milan pulled off a hard-fought 2-1 win over Genoa on Sunday to return to the top of the Serie A standings.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, Cristian Chivu’s side seized the opportunity presented yesterday.

Inter’s direct Scudetto rivals dropped points earlier in the day.

Indeed, AC Milan could only manage a 2-2 home draw against newly promoted Sassuolo.

Meanwhile, Udinese stunned Antonio Conte’s Napoli at the Bluenergy Stadium, claiming a well-deserved 1-0 victory.

Yann Bisseck and Lautaro Martinez engineered Inter’s crucial triumph at Stadio Luigi Ferraris.

Furthermore, El Toro delivered a match-winning performance, scoring an all-important second goal after assisting Bisseck for the first.

Meanwhile, Piotr Zielinski went from strength to strength in the absence of starting playmaker Hakan Calhanoglu.

However, Alessandro Bastoni and Luis Henrique faltered again, with the former enabling Vitinha to pull one back for Genoa.
