easy win for Inter versus Roma.
Game dominated, 17 shoots vs 3 I think.

The hard part was to score but the game has been dominate, not even close.

Inter is the favorite for winning the league.

[SUPERSAIAN]

I never understood how this match ended 1-0. Was it Inter's bad luck or incompetence or Rome's solid defense, maybe both. There was a shot that Hakan Çalhanoğlu hit right before his arrival. If that goal had been a goal, it would have been the best goal of the week. It fit so well that it went straight off the foot, it was very close.

Inter has been in extreme form lately and this has a big part to play in this situation. Roma had two shots in more than 90 minutes. It happened this year. It's very interesting for Roma, it's not just a one-game bad run, it's a general trend.

Inter is the favorite for winning the league.

Inter dominated the match with ball possession reaching 63% and recording at least 3 shots on goal. Thuram managed to score a goal near the end of the second half, three points which kept them at the top of the Serie A standings. Meanwhile, Roma is stuck in eighth position in the standings, if Lazio wins over Fiorentina then Roma's position will be automatically shifted again.

There's no mistaking it, Inter is the favorite club to win the Scudetto this season, their defense and front line are equally good. I hoped that Lukaku could score a goal against Inter but it didn't happen, and Mourinho was not visible on the sidelines.

As I predicted in my previous post, Thuram will have to be closely guarded in this match by Roma defenders because if he escapes the guard it will be quite impossible for them in this match. And of course that's true because the only goal scored in this match was scored by Thuram so what I said before is quite correct. Apart from that, Roma also played badly in this match because they lost in all aspects and Inter should have been able to secure a win with a big score in this match but many of their shots were saved by Patricio.

So Roma trend of winning three times in a row was successfully broken by Inter Milan in the 10th Serie A match this season. Roma is still stuck in 8th place for now and Lazio can shift Roma ranking if Lazio is able to win in tomorrow's match against Fiorentina.

Napoli vs Milan

A beautiful first half for Milan as the dominated the match and won all possession from Napoli. Giroud scored the two goals in the first half with a beautiful header to give his team a better opportunity of gaining all three points. I see that Milan is really entertaining themselves in this match.

It is very obvious that Napoli is not fit to play Milan in this match because I can see the big difference from in the two clubs game pattern. This is the time that Napoli needs Osimhen in a big match like this so that Napoli can have confidence in scoring. If changes are not made and Napoli should come up with a better strategy, I don't think that they will be able to put themselves back in the second in the second half.
Napoli 0-1 Milan.

30 minutes left in the game between Napoli and Milan.
Garcia is failing again so far with Napoli losing by 2 to 1.

30 minutes left but if they end up losing they will be almost already out of the race for the Scudetto.

It will be really hard on Rudi Garcia if Stefano Pioli beats him at Armando Diego Marandona stadium. We know how important this game is for the new manager who attempts to climb forward on Seria A table. They're currently 4th on the table, it's time for the Naples to be really competitive for the scudetto this season. AC Milan takes the lead in the first half but the situation on ground is probably getting out of hand because Napoli are trying their possible best to score. It's 2-1 on the scoresheet, watching the pressing performance from the Naples gives the home team fans hope for an equalizer, moreover there's still enough time to net goals.

Contrary to what you think, and what I thought, Napoli are now leveled with AC Milan after AC Milan were leading the game with two goals from Giroud who has not scored for a while. The changes that the Napoli coach made in the second half and the early goal from Matteo Politano increased the hope of the Napoli players that a second goal was possible. Giacomo Raspadori scored the second goal for Napoli from a freekick which is a very rare way that Napoli scores. Without Victor Osimhen, the other Napoli players are showing that they can still do well in his absence.

Napoli are starting to show revival and now the score is 2-2. Milan failed to maintain a 0-2 lead in the second half and they could potentially fail to win any points if Napoli scored the 3rd goal in the remainder of the second half. Really, I just want to see Milan beat Napoli today especially after Inter beat Roma. But hopes became even lower after Napoli equalized.

As it is, Garcia had to do three quick substitution in the second half and that's kind of paving a way for him because it has helped to boost the morale of the Napoli side. Right now, they have levelled the scoreline and are still looking for more goals. With this, it shows they are still interested in carrying the Scudetto for the second time and I believe if they continue with this pressing, they may take the lead..
 AC Milan have still not gotten out of the loss PSG served them in the champions league and are yet to find their feet after they lost to Juventus so I still see that they will struggle in this game, and it doesn't help that they got an early goal lead. Let's see if the game will end in a draw or either side will take the upper hand.

Napoli is back into the game this second half as they have been attacking and pressuring Milan to the extend that they equalized the goals. Raapadori scored a marvelous goal with a perfect free kick that curved through the wall into the net, leaving the goalkeeper on ghost mood. Politano scored the first goal on the 50th minutes with a powerful shot close to the 16yard box. The match is now very tough and at it's peak because both clubs are fight to have full three points. Napoli is playing impressively this second have and they are creating more chances to score their third goal.

[W Jr.]

Very disappointed with this match, because it was very tough even though in reality, Inter had very good dominance in this match. But yes, Inter still didn't manage to score a goal until the 80th minute, despite the fact that Inter had many attempted shots at AS Roma's goal . I hope this match will have lots of goals, but it looks like that won't happen. Because after all, AS Roma also didn't have a good way of building attacks in this match, so it was difficult for AS Roma to score goals. So yeah, a least Marcus Thuram success in scoring a goal in the 81st minute, but looks like it will be the only one goal that occurs in this match. But the match is not over yet, and I hope there will still be more goals scored.

Thuram the hero of the game in a match that Lukaku was talked about the most returning to the club he was last season. Thuram is clearly a better replacement for him in Inter Milan because in big games where Inter Milan has needed goals, Thuram scores. Inter's win in this game is important and they will continue on top of the table. Napoli are about playing AC Milan, and all I can think of is what AC Milan did to Napoli last season in the Serie A and in the Champions league. I still see AC Milan as the team that will win the game even though they are the away team.

Napoli responded to 2 early goals from Giroud in the second half. The match is still 2-2 and both teams continue to attack the match fearlessly. A goal can be scored in the remaining 15 minutes. It wouldn't surprise me if there was another goal in the match. Napoli is better organized than in the first half. I think Inter must be the one who wants the match to end with this score the most. Those who follow the match indirectly are Inter fans because it is a match that affects them directly.

Yes, the score has changed, Napoli 2-2 AC Milan.
Napoli changed the tactic, they try to play more aggressively in the second half. It is quite successful because they can score 2 goals now. If AC Milan played with they same tactic, I think Napoli will have a bigger chance to win the match now. Napoli players look playing more confident after they succeed to equalize the score. But the match is getting interesting, I'm sure AC Milan will do something to deal with a change on Napoli tactic.

Napoli 0-1 Milan.

It looks like both are playing for a draw now, 4 goals have been scored and the powerplay was on for most of the game. Now 20 minutes and no one wants to lose points, these are important games when you play against a direct teams there Play also for the championship. Inter won today only 1-0 and Juventus yesterday also only 1-0, they are very important points. If Napoli or Milan score a goal now, then its 6 points worth the game.

You're right, Napoli played better in the second half, but I was very disappointed about how Milan let their victory slip after taking a 2 goal lead in the first half. Even though Milan did not lose, this is one failure that must be avoided because its chances of winning the Scudetto this season will not be any better. So now Milan is 3 points behind Inter or 1 point behind Juventus, but I hope they can improve in other matches.

The match is over, nothing has changed even though one of Napoli's players received a red card a few minutes before the end of the match. Milan failed to win after taking the lead, which was disappointing.

Of course, this draw has benefited Inter and Juventus, but however the points gap between these three teams is not much. I believe Milan can compete better throughout this season to win the title, especially if they start to focus more on Serie A. Milan also not at their best in the Champions League, if they fail then I hope Serie A becomes the main focus they need to fight for.

The match is so interesting cause both teams performance today was good, they're in the extra mins before full-time and still playing 2-2 draw, Napoli really tried to get reply with 2 goals atleast the won't lose the game and has stolen a point from Acmilan who looked like the winners of the game from the 1st half if they were winning currently they would've been in 2nd place above Juventus but they're currently in third place, a team which was in the 1st position about weeks ago.

 It seems Rudi Garcia is now understanding the task ahead and has improved his tactics for his team to start doing well because at some point in the game i felt they'll lose but they came back to the score 2 goals and equalized in the 2nd half and likewise Milan, Napoli also created good chances in the match, however they're gradually becoming consistent lately and have secured a spot in the top 4.

The match is over already, Napoli 2 vs 2 AC Milan. AC Milan scored 2 goals in the first half, meanwhile Napoli scored 2 goals in the second half. The match was quite tough, both teams have done their best. However, I'm sure Napoli can do better if they have Victor Osimhen on the lineup. Sadly, Osimhen is injured, he looks to be absent for few matches because there is no clear information about when they probably recovers from the injury.

Well, I think a draw is a fair result for both teams.

Regarding the match Inter vs Roma, it is already predicted that Inter will win the match. Inter squad is better, they played at home, and they are in a good shape lately. There is no reason for a lose, Inter must win the match. I even think the score should be 2 goals at least but they only could score 1 goal only. But it is surely enough to secure 3 points.

-snip-

We can say that it is a good win for Cagliari. They needed it and they got it. Going back to the Inter-Roma match, the last minutes are being played and Roma has been wiped off the field. Inter are playing great. Roma, on the other hand, is playing as if they are desperately praying for the match to end in a draw. Inter has risen to a different level this year. I think they are the biggest candidates for the Scudetto.

Edit : As I write this message, Thuram scored and Inter is now 1-0 ahead.

They won that match really well, it was a perfect comeback for a team of Cagliari level. I mean they are not a big and dominant team in Serie A, but surprisingly they were able to win athough they were 3 goals behind. In the end Inter win, I personally have the same thought, Inter is one of the biggest candidates this season to win the Scudetto. Inter have been very consistent so far and it seems like they can continue to be consistent until the end, also their current squad is better than last season.

The match is so interesting cause both teams performance today was good, they're in the extra mins before full-time and still playing 2-2 draw, Napoli really tried to get reply with 2 goals atleast the won't lose the game and has stolen a point from Acmilan who looked like the winners of the game from the 1st half if they were winning currently they would've been in 2nd place above Juventus but they're currently in third place, a team which was in the 1st position about weeks ago.

 It seems Rudi Garcia is now understanding the task ahead and has improved his tactics for his team to start doing well because at some point in the game i felt they'll lose but they came back to the score 2 goals and equalized in the 2nd half and likewise Milan, Napoli also created good chances in the match, however they're gradually becoming consistent lately and have secured a spot in the top 4.

Looks like Rudi Garcia finally secured his job again, atleast he didn't lost at home against Stefano Pioli. The men of Rudi Garcia shared points with the visitors in a 2-2 draw game, and there was no way to differentiate between between both teams. AC Milan is one of the most vulnerable teams when it comes to protecting their own region; they have no concept of how to handle the intense pressure from Napoli, and watching the Neapolitans score two goals to tie the game was disappointing for the Rossoneri. Who would have believed the Parthenopeans would be able to mount an incredible comeback against AC Milan?

[Leviathan.007]

Roma has Lukaku and Inter Milan has Martinez and these players was in the top of their performance because Martinez scores 11 goals and Lukaku 5 goals so this is interesting today because who will be able to scored today and help their teams to gets the winning results but Lukaku might be so excited to facing this match because he will return to San Siro but currently as a opponent and Lukaku might have more motivation to scored goal and actually this match is hard to predicted because the recent performance from them is looks equal but a bit surprised to see the difference odds between them because the bookmakers provide @1.55 for Inter and @6.20 for Roma although Inter is the favourite but i still doubt to pick them

Inter Milan will be the most favored team to win the match, not because of the host factor, but if we look at the condition of the two teams, there are quite real differences so that people will not doubt Inter Milan's ability to beat Roma. Lukaku is of course very motivated to score goals, even more than that, to bring his team to win in this tough match, but without support from his teammates, Lukaku will have difficulty doing it alone, if he can score goals, but Roma's defense can be penetrated by Inter Milan players and score more goals then Lukaku's struggle was in vain because Roma needed 3 points to improve their position.
I am quite sure that Inter Milan will win this match and there is a big chance for them to score more than two goals because they are currently the most productive team in Serie A, and Roma must be aware of that otherwise they will experience a crushing defeat.

Lukaku and Martinez were playing in the same team when we were both in Inter Milan and after everything happened with Lukaku and Inter Milan he left the team and that's why many fans were unhappy because of this player obviously there was more pressure n this player than other palyer in this match and I was not expecting to see good performance from him. On the other hand, because of the better situation Inter Milan have in Serie A recently, I was expecting to see them winning this game even easier than this.
