The match appeared to be slipping away from Inter after Alex Jimenez stunned the home crowd with a long-range strike in the 65th minute. However, the league leaders maintained their composure, with Marcus Thuram equalising in the 91st minute before winning a decisive penalty. Piotr Zielinski stepped up to convert the spot-kick in the 98th minute, sealing a win that keeps Fiorentina firmly in 18th place following a four-game winless streak.
Juventus and AC Milan Return to Winning Ways
Elsewhere in the league, AC Milan responded to their recent Europa League disappointment by securing a 2-0 away victory against Udinese. Christian Pulisic opened the scoring just six minutes into the contest, expertly controlling a long ball from Luka Modric before finding the net. Omari Hutchinson added a second goal in the second half, marking his first for the club and moving Milan to 18 points, level with Roma.
Juventus also found relief from their recent struggles, recording a 2-0 win over Lecce. Weston McKennie opened the scoring by converting a Douglas Luiz free-kick, before the Brazilian midfielder added a second goal of his own before halftime. The victory provides a necessary boost for head coach Luciano Spalletti, despite a late red card for Lecce’s Kialonda Gasper. In other fixtures, Atalanta and Frosinone played out a high-scoring 4-4 draw, while Genoa climbed out of the relegation zone with a narrow 1-0 win over Venezia.
