Inter Milan, the reigning Italian champions, suffered their first defeat of the season in Serie A on Saturday evening, losing the Milan city derby 1:3 to AC Milan and thereby losing top spot in the table.
Milan decide the game in the first half
Milan started the match strongly, with American Christian Pulisic opening the scoring in the 4th minute before Adrien Rabiot added a second in the 10th minute. Alessandro Bastoni pulled one back for Inter in the 22nd minute, before Diego Moreira scored the third goal from a free kick in the 43rd minute. The match ended with the same 3:1 scoreline as at half-time.
Lazio on top
Following this defeat, Inter dropped to second place, level on points with new leaders Lazio Rome, who have the chance to pull clear at the top when they host Cagliari on Sunday.
Alaba absent as Udinese suffer heavy defeat
In another match, Udinese Calcio lost 2:5 to AS Roma without Austria captain David Alaba, who missed out with a calf injury, the third consecutive match he has missed. Roma led 4:0 at half-time against the 19th-placed side, before Nicolo Zaniolo in the 50th minute and Matteo Palma in the 78th minute reduced the deficit. Roma are third, one point behind the leading duo.
Austrian fans are following Alaba’s condition with interest, after it was previously announced that he will miss Austria’s next two Nations League matches.
