Inter defeats Empoli and responds to Napoli

Inter won 3-1 against Empoli and immediately responded to Napoli's success, keeping pace with the Serie A leaders. The Blues secured the triumph at San Siro only in the second half with a goal from Lautaro Martinez, who opened the scoring. The Blues captain sent the ball into the net in the 55th minute, after a powerful and precise right-footed shot from inside the area, which surprised the goalkeeper.

In the 79th minute, Dumfries doubled the lead with a precise header following a corner kick, writes A2 CNN.

Esposito, five minutes from the end, created the illusion that he could bring Empoli back into the game, but Thuram in the last seconds sealed Inter's success with the figures 3-1. The Blues increased the distance to 3 points from Napoli and have a game to recover.

In other meetings, Lazio, with Elseid Hysaj on the field, won 3-0 at Verona. Gigot, Dia and Zaçagni gave the white and blue team the triumph, who see themselves in fourth place. In other meetings, Cagliari also won 4-1 against Lecce. 1-1 draws in the duels Fiorentina-Torino and Parma-Venezia. (A2 Televizion)
