Serie A, Inter-Udinese 1-2

Rome, August 31 (LaPresse) – Unexpected slip-up for Inter, who were defeated at San Siro by Udinese 2-1 in the match valid for the second round of Serie A. After the 5-0 win in their opener against Torino, Chivu’s team failed to repeat themselves and to overcome the team from Friuli, who, after being one goal down due to Dumfries’s goal in the 17th minute, first found the equalizer with Davis from the penalty spot in the 29th minute, then took the lead through Atta in the 40th minute. In the second half, Inter kept attacking constantly but fruitlessly: in the 56th minute a goal by Dimarco was ruled out for offside. Chivu tried to change tactics by fielding all four strikers, but the Friulian wall, which clinched their first win, held firm.
