As expected, Inter had no trouble away to Cremonese in the 23rd round of Serie A. Cristi Chivu’s men won 2-0 to move clear of chasers AC Milan on 8 points and Napoli on 9 points.
The Serie A leaders made the game easy from the first half when they scored twice, through Lautaro Martinez (15) and Piotr Zielinski (31). He then played economically, keeping the home team away from Sommer’s goals. Although the game was peaceful, there was also an unfortunate incident that could cost Inter.
Incident created by Inter supporters
Nerazzurri fans started throwing pyrotechnic objects onto the field, one of them hitting the home goalkeeper, Audero, who urgently needed medical attention. Immediately, the players of Inter and Cristi Chivu, ran to the scene of the incident to calm the spirits. Even if Cremonese’s goalkeeper was able to continue the match, the European vice-champion risks sanctions from the Italian federation.
For the Milanese, there is a match against Torino on Wednesday in Milan, in the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup, and then at the weekend they will play on the field of another newly promoted team, Sassuolo. After that, hot matches come for Cristi Chivu’s team: the duel with Juventus (February 14) and the Champions League play-off round with Bodo/Glimt (February 18)
