Two goals in the last four minutes saved Inter the blushes in Kiev as they beat Dynamo 2-1 in Ukraine on Wednesday night. Dutch playmaker Wesley Sneijder and Argentine striker Diego Milito scored in the 85th and 89th minutes respectively to give three valuable points to the Nerazzurri. The result also lifted Inter off the bottom of Group F and propelled them straight to the top.
Inter opened a seven point gap between them and second placed Juventus last Sunday by beating Livorno 2-0. Both the goals, one from the boot of Diego Milito and the other from Brazilian right back Maicon, came in the second half of the game.
If Inter’s start to the season has been good, Roma’s start has been any thing but it. The Giallorossi sacked Luciano Spalletti and replaced him with Claudio Ranieri, but the switch does not seem to have made a major change to Roma’s fortunes. They currently languish in the bottom half of the table with fourteen points from eleven games.
Roma beat Bologna 2-1 last week at the Stadio Olimpico, and followed it up with a similar win against Fulham in the Europa League on Thursday night. Mirko Vucinic and Simone Perrotta were on target against Bologna, while John Arne Riise and Stefano Okako Chuka netted against the Cottagers.
Roma are likely to be without inspirational skipper Francesco Totti for the trip to Milan. Can they beat Internazionale in his absence? Sign up today and watch live streaming of Inter Milan vs AS Roma online to find out.
