Spinacce’ twists and turns between two, sending the same player down twice, but the finish is deflected for a corner.

Fila sends a pass for Sagrado to sprint on down the left, but Martinez rushes out to hoof it clear.

Inter 5-1 Venezia: Ange-Yoan Bonny!

That is a scorching finish!

Bisseck cross nodded down by Mkhitaryan, it bounces on the edge of the area, and Bonny hits an absolute screamer on the half-volley into the far top corner with the right boot!

2025-12-03 21:36:22

74'

Inter chance!

Mkhitaryan runs into the box and drills inches wide from 10 yards after Venezia give it away!

2025-12-03 21:34:55

69'

Cleared off the line!

Diouf almost got his second of the game from 12 yards on the Bonny roll across from the left, but Venturi made the goal-line clearance!

67'

Inter 4-1 Venezia: Richie Sagrado!

Pull-back from the left for Sagrado, whose finish from eight yards takes a big deflection off Carlos Augusto – huge – and totally wrong-foots Josep Martinez.

2025-12-03 21:27:13

65'

Esposito tries to run onto a long ball, holds off Venturi in a very physical battle, the referee rules the defender got the ball. They were wrestling each other and Esposito didn’t complain either.

On the replay, don’t think Venturi did get the ball…

2025-12-03 21:26:06

64'

Low Compagnoni cross from the right for Venezia, Martinez is alert to smother at the near post.

Fila on for Venezia, replacing Haps.

2025-12-03 21:24:12

Cocchi and Bonny on, Thuram and Luis Henrique off for Inter.

To anyone wondering, you pronounce Cocchi exactly like Cocky.

56'

Frattesi twice gets away down the right, first time he tries to roll across for Esposito and it’s intercepted, the second he goes for goal and it’s smothered.

54'

Venezia win a rare corner, but then whip it past everyone.

2025-12-03 21:14:21

51'

Inter 4-0 Venezia: Marcus Thuram!

No celebration, because he crashed into the net…

Frattesi gets down the right, pulls back from the by-line for the Thuram diving header from six yards and the landing was rather heavy, but he’s on his feet and joking eventually.
