After the halftime break, Inter doubled their advantage in the 49th minute. Lautaro Martinez seemed poised for a brace, but the referee disallowed the goal upon video review due to an offside position. In the midst of the second half, the visitors surprisingly staged a comeback. On the 74th minute, Tom Henry became the author of a scored goal. Inter managed to regain the lead later in injury time, with Davide Frattesi emerging as the savior for the hosts.

It appeared that Inter would comfortably secure the victory, but on the tenth added minute, the referee awarded a penalty in favor of the hosts. Tom Henry had the opportunity to become Verona's true hero, yet he failed to convert the 11-meter shot.

Inter clinches an incredible and emotionally charged victory in this match, prevailing 2-1. Simone Inzaghi's team amasses 48 points, maintaining their leadership in Serie A.
