A crazy match at the Sinigaglia: Inter win 4-3 against Como after a dramatic comeback and go 9 points clear of Napoli, moving closer to the Scudetto.

Como start very strongly and go 2-0 up through Valle and Nico Paz, but before the break Marcus Thuram pulls one back. Early in the second half, Thuram makes it level again after taking advantage of a huge defensive blunder involving Kempf and Butez.

At that point Denzel Dumfries takes center stage, scoring twice to complete the turnaround and make it 4-2, both assisted by Hakan Calhanoglu.

Late on, Da Cunha’s penalty throws everything back open, but it’s not enough: Inter hold on and take home a massive win.

Como slip to 2 points behind Juventus, while the Nerazzurri make their Scudetto breakaway.


💣 Da Cunha scores from the spot, Marelli: "Penalty should have been overturned"

A fiery finish at the Giuseppe Sinigaglia Stadium: Como get back into the game against Inter thanks to an 89th-minute penalty.

After a dangerous move, Nico Paz is involved in a challenge with Bonny: initially a free kick on the edge of the box is awarded, but VAR changes the position, moving the foul inside the area.

From the spot, captain Da Cunha makes no mistake and makes it 3-4, reigniting the finale.

Marelli on DAZN disagreed with the decision: "Bonny does not go at Nico Paz with his legs or feet, it is Nico who hits Bonny. The right thing to do was to call Massa to the monitor and therefore overturn the foul and the penalty."


🧨 Tension between Como fans and Barella

Tension at the Sinigaglia between Nicolò Barella and the Como fans.

When he was substituted, the Inter midfielder was whistled for time-wasting as he left the field and reacted with a provocative gesture toward the stand.

The reaction did not go down well with his former fans, who showered him with whistles and insults, accusing him of showing no respect for his past in Como.

From a Hakan Calhanoglu free kick, there is a knockdown in the box and the Dutchman finishes first time past Butez. A personal brace and the match under control for the Nerazzurri.

The goal also has symbolic value: it is Inter’s 100th goal of the season, as they reach triple figures for the seventh consecutive season.

The other is Lautaro Martinez, the top scorer with 16 goals (12 from open play).


🤩 Nico Paz magic and Como MARVEL! But Thuram pulls one back: 2-1!

💥 Boos for Bastoni

A heated atmosphere at the Sinigaglia for Alessandro Bastoni, targeted with boos and insults by the Como fans.

Behind the protests is not only the rivalry between the two teams, but also the incident in the Derby d’Italia against Juventus, where the Inter defender was accused of exaggerating a challenge with Pierre Kalulu.


🏆 Fabregas HONORED

Before the kickoff of Como-Inter, Como coach Cesc Fabregas was honored by Lega Serie A.

The Spaniard is the Philadelphia Coach of the Month for March.


🐂 Lautaro on the bench

Lautaro Martinez is also in the squad and on the bench for Como-Inter.

El Toro chose to follow the team despite being injured to stay close to his teammates.


💥 Fabregas: "Inter dominate 95% of matches, it takes DEVASTATING personality"

Cesc Fabregas spoke to DAZN before Como-Inter

"How do you trouble Inter? We need devastating personality against a team that dominates 95% of matches. We’ll see how we get to the second half and whether changes are needed. Lately I’ve been watching a lot of matches: I really enjoy seeing the very highest level live, it’s the highest level where I’d like to see my team, and hopefully we can get close to a high percentage of that."


🗣️ Chivu and Dumfries: "Napoli draw? It’s not a match point"

Cristian Chivu spoke to DAZN before Como-Inter:

"Napoli’s draw? We’re thinking about ourselves, about what we need to do today, knowing it won’t be easy. Como have important ambitions, and we know we need a great performance to get the result."

"What did I ask for? Not to lose our identity, to show courage and to understand the moments of the match. We need to go blow for blow, understanding well what to do in certain moments of the game."

Inter wing-back Denzel Dumfries added:

"It’s not a match point, for us it changes nothing. We have to win, focus on the match."
