Inter edge closer to Scudetto after draw at San Siro

Inter edge closer to Scudetto after draw at San Siro

Inter remain on course for the Serie A title despite being held to a 0-0 draw by Juventus at San Siro, with the Nerazzurri now three points clear at the top with four games remaining. The stalemate, mirroring the reverse fixture, offered little in the way of excitement — Georginio Wijnaldum saw a goal chalked off for offside, while Arne Saelemaekers rattled the crossbar — as both Allegri and Spalletti settled for a point in a tense, low-key clash.

Champions League race tightens

The result keeps the race for Europe alive, with AC Milan, Juventus, Roma and Como all within six points of the top four. Cesc Fàbregas’s Sampdoria boosted their survival hopes with a 2-0 win at Genoa, while Napoli remain in contention thanks to Scott McTominay, who has scored 13 league goals this season — one more will set a new personal best.

Toro fight back, Inter rebellion over referees

At the Stadio Olimpico, Torino mounted a spirited comeback against Inter, with substitutes Jonathan Calleri and Nikola Ninković sparking a 15-minute surge that disrupted the visitors’ rhythm. Ilkhan lit up the stadium, and coach D’Aversa praised the team’s renewed attitude: ‘The mentality has changed — Cholito was determined.’ Duván Zapata added: ‘We must rebuild our bond with the fans.’

Marotta breaks silence on referee scandal

Meanwhile, Inter CEO Giuseppe Marotta addressed the ongoing refereeing investigation, stating: ‘We are not involved in the scandal. We’ve always acted correctly.’ Prosecutors are examining alleged irregularities, with referees Daniele Orsato and Paolo Valeri set to be questioned. FIGC commissioner talks are underway, backed by the government, though the board remains divided. Marotta insisted: ‘We’ve never requested specific referees.’

What’s next

Inter can clinch the Scudetto with a win over Parma at San Siro this Sunday. Elsewhere, Roma continue their push for Europe, having invested €181m in strikers since 2020, with Donyell Malen now leading the line. In Serie B, Arezzo celebrated promotion, while Bucchi’s side beat Torres 3-1 to reach 80 points in 36 matches.
