In the 10th round of the Italian Serie A, Inter hosted Roma at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. The visitors from Rome arrived without their suspended manager José Mourinho, who had received a red card in their previous match against Monza. The first half was a complete failure for the Romans, as they couldn't create any chances against Inter. Both teams went into half-time with the score level.
Despite having the advantage, Inter struggled to open the scoring. Roma had their first chance in the 67th minute, with Cristante’s shot brilliantly saved by Samir Handanovic. The only goal of the match came in the 81st minute, when Marcus Thuram scored from Federico Dimarco's assist.
Inter won the match 1-0 and returned to the top of the Serie A table. Roma currently sits in eighth place, but the position may be at risk after this round.
Inter - Roma — 1:0
Goal: 1:0 - Thuram 81.
In the next round, Inter will play away against Atalanta, while Roma will host Lecce at home.
