Obrić do nove prilike i prve točke, lud preokret Intera, nula Lovrića

Inter Milan secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over Fiorentina at San Siro on Sunday, striking twice in stoppage time to reclaim the top spot in the Serie A standings. The result leaves the Nerazzurri tied with Lazio on 22 points. In another high-scoring affair, Atalanta drew 4-4 with Frosinone, a match in which Slovenian defender Relja Obric played the full ninety minutes to earn his first point in the league. The match in Milan appeared destined for a shock defeat for the home side. Fiorentina, managed by Cristian Chivu’s opponents, took the lead in the 65th minute through an audacious long-range strike by Alex Jimenez. The former AC Milan player curled the ball into the top corner, catching debutant Inter goalkeeper Ivan Provedel by surprise. Despite dominating possession throughout the first half, Inter struggled to break down the defense of David de Gea. The Spanish keeper made several key saves, including a fingertip stop on a header from Pio Esposito and a parry of an angled drive from Marcus Thuram. As the game entered its final stages, Inter increased the pressure. Carlos Augusto hit the crossbar with a glancing header, and de Gea denied substitute Petar Sucic. However, the hosts found a way through in the 91st minute when Thuram guided a shot into the bottom corner to level the score. The momentum shifted decisively moments later when Thuram was dragged down by Victor Valdespina in the penalty area. Piotr Zielinski converted the resulting penalty in the 98th minute to seal the comeback. This marked the fifth time this season that Inter reversed a deficit to win a match. Fiorentina’s winless streak extended to four games, keeping them in 18th place. The visitors showed resilience and sacrifice, holding on for much of the second half despite being under constant attack. Inter manager Cristian Chivu’s side maintained control from start to finish, though they were criticized for failing to convert their dominance into goals earlier in the contest. In Bergamo, Atalanta faced a chaotic encounter against Frosinone. The match featured eight goals, seven of which occurred between the first minute and the 50th minute. Frosinone opened the scoring within 30 seconds after an error by Ederson allowed Romano Schmid to exploit the situation. The teams traded blows repeatedly, with Frosinone taking the lead multiple times. Nicola Krstovic scored twice for Atalanta, while Schmid netted two for the visitors. Aleksa Terzic ensured the draw for Frosinone with a goal in the 82nd minute. Obric, a 20-year-old Slovenian defender, started the match and remained on the pitch for the entire duration. It was his first appearance from the first minute following his Serie A debut in the previous round, which came after the injury of Sead Kolasinac. Prior to this, Obric had also featured in a European League match against Ajax, starting in the first eleven. His performance contributed to Atalanta securing a point in a match characterized by rapid shifts in momentum and defensive errors. Other results from the weekend included a 2-0 victory for Como over Sassuolo, which propelled Como to fourth place. Cagliari lost 0-2 to Bologna at home. Torino defeated Monza 3-2, although Aljaz Strajnar did not receive playing time. Lazio beat Parma 2-1, with Kenneth Taylor opening the scoring in the second half and Diego Carlos adding an own goal before Simone Lontani sealed the win in the 95th minute. Napoli and Roma produced a thrilling 3-3 draw. Scott McTominay gave Napoli a 2-0 lead early in the second half. Roma equalized with two goals between the 70th and 74th minutes. McTominay restored Napoli’s advantage in the 83rd minute, but Leonardo Balerdi scored just before full-time to level the scores. Napoli manager Massimiliano Allegri received a red card at the end of the match. He stated afterward that for the first time in 25 years, he lacked the composure to comment on the game. AC Milan traveled to Udinese and won 2-0, ending a difficult period for the Rossoneri. Christian Pulisic and Hutchinson scored the goals. Milan’s victory kept them close to the leaders. Juventus achieved an important away win against Lecce, moving up to sixth place. Genoa defeated last-placed Venezia 1-0, improving their standing in the relegation zone. The Serie A schedule continued with these matches concluding the round. Inter’s late rally highlighted their effectiveness in critical moments, even if their overall performance remained imperfect. The league table saw Inter and Lazio share the lead, while Roma dropped to four points behind. The competitive nature of the top of the table remains tight, with several clubs capable of challenging for the title.
