INTER V ROMA - INTER LEAPFROG CITY RIVALS WITH IMPRESSIVE WIN

It would be a brave pundit to tip them not to win lo Scudetto now. Thanks for following the game with us.

Perez dallies on the ball and his effort is blocked by Bastoni.

But De Vrij is there to block Mkhitaryan's effort.

He brings down Mkhitaryan who looks the most influential player on the pitch now.

And a fantastic one at that as Mkhitaryan met Shmurodov's fine cut back from the by-line with a side-footed effort which rocketed into the top corner.

His woes seem a long way away. Sanchez replaces him.

He is replaced by Bove.

But from a tight angle he can't get his shot past Patricio who came out to close him down.

He brought down substitute Gagliardini.

Abraham and Zalewski come off. Vina and Shomurodov come on.

Confusion in the Roma defence as Karsdorp and Patricio were on different wavelengths on how to clear Barella's cross, but the ball doesn't drop for Martinez and Roma manage to clear.

Inter resting players now with Perisisc and Brozovic coming off.

El Shaaraway and Pellegrini come off for Roma.

Dzeko and Dimarco come off. A little surprising the left wing back is departing after a fine game.

But loses control of the ball and Smalling clears.

Intiially Dimarco blocked his cross but the Roma forward got the ball into the area afterwards but not close enough to Abraham.

That is the game. Somehow Martinez is the one who meets the corner and heads home unchecked.

Think Van Basten Euro 88 range and he gets a wicked effort in and Patricio has to save above his head.

But Zalewski stops him and puts it out for a corner.

But Dimarco is over smartly to clear the danger in front of El Shaarawy.
