Inter Milan is ideally launched towards a 20th Scudetto. Simone Inzaghi’s men picked up their 9th consecutive victory in Serie A on Monday evening by beating Genoa 2-1 at the end of the 27th day. They are 15 points ahead of Juventus and 16 ahead of AC Milan.
Yann Sommer therefore remains with 16 shutouts in this 2023/24 Italian championship in 26 appearances. The goalkeeper of the Swiss team remained without reaction to the powerful left-footed recovery from 16 meters by Johan Vasquez after a missed clearance by the Lombard defense (54th, 2-1). This goal breaks a series of invincibility of 369 minutes for the native of Morges.
The Interists, who have a goal-average of 18-3 in their last five league matches, made the difference in the first half thanks to a goal from Kristjan Asllani (30th) and a penalty converted by Alexis Sanchez (38th). They mastered their subject after the score reduction to sign their 11th success in as many matches played in 2024 in all competitions.
