Atalanta 2 – Inter 3: No home advantage for The Goddess as Nerazzurri win
Internazionale eased past Atalanta in a 3-2 victory on Sunday at the Gewiss Stadium. Atalanta were looking to get back to winning ways after losing their last match 2-1 to Lecce. Inter were coming from a 6-1 win against Bologna. Atalanta and Inter currently occupy 6th and 4th spots in the table, with 27 points and 30 points respectively after 15 matches.
The Goddess found the net first, thanks to a goal from Ademola Lookman in the 25th minute. However, their lead was short-lived, as Edin Dzeko equalised for Inter on the 36 minute mark, which brought Simone Inzaghi’s squad level at 1-1 at the half time break
Nerazzurri continued to pile on the pressure in the second period and were rewarded, when Edin Dzeko found the net once more in the 56th minute. Inter looked to have the match under control when they scored again and increased their lead, thanks to a goal from Jose Luis Palomino, at 61 minutes to establish a 3-1. In the end though, Atalanta pull-back following a Jose Luis Palomino goal, 77 minutes in. When the final whistle blew, the result was 3-2 to Inter.
Substitutions for Atalanta included Ruslan Malinovskyi, Caleb Okoli, Rasmus Hojlund and Jeremie Boga for Giorgio Scalvini, Merih Demiral, Duvan Zapata and Mario Pasalic, respectively.
