The 2020-2021 Serie A TIM matchday 7 fixture against Inter ends 1-1 at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo. The game was decided in the second half, after an even first half, with both teams well organised and few spaces for their respective attacks. Lautaro on one end and Malinovskyi on the other had the best chances, but their shots were off target. In the second half the deadlock was broken on 58 with a Lautaro Martinez header who flicked Young’s cross into the far top corner. Sportiello pulled off two brilliant saves on 65 when he first denied Vidal, then Barella. These two saves were crucial, as the equaliser arrived on 79 thanks to Miranchuk, who sent a left-foot angled drive into the far bottom corner. Gasperini’s team finished on a high and they came close to victory on 84 when Muriel’s diving header was off target.
