Juventus are getting closer and closer to a second successive Scudetto after 2-1 victory against Inter Milano last Saturday. Inter have won the first derby with 3-1 at Juventus Stadium and now those from Turin wanted to win this match at any cost even if the match was played on Giuseppe Meazza.
Even if this game was prior to Champions League clash with Bayern Munich, coach Antonio Conte declared before the game that he will not rest any first team player even if they have 9 point ahead Napoli in Serie A. For Juventus the most important thing was to win the derby with Inter.
The match did not started too well for Inter as Fabio Quagliarela managed to score only 3 minutes from the start of the game with great shoot from outside the box.This was the half time score.
After a first half dominated largely by Juventus, Inter’s players came more focused in the second half and in the 54th minute Palacio scored the equaliser after a rapid combination with Antonio Cassano. Conte said before the game that a draw is not helpful to any of the teams, so Juventus players risked more and in the 60th minute Matri scored the second goal for Juventus, which proved to be the winning goal .
After this match Juventus retain the 9 points ahead of Napoli and it’s hard to believe that they can lose the title in the 8 remaining stages, while Inter Milan sinking lower and lower in the Serie A and moving away from the main objective which is 3rd place. Inter Milan are in 6th place with 47 points at 10 points behind 3rd place.
