JAKARTA - Inter Milan had to work hard to beat Torino with a score of 1-0 in the sixth week of Serie A at Guiseppe Meazza on Saturday night. The Inter-mile victory goal was created by Marcelo Brozovic.

These three points make Simone Inzaghi's men in third place in Serie A standings with 12 points, two points apart from Napoli at the top. Meanwhile, Torino is in seventh position with 10 points. Quoted by Antara on Sunday.

Inter, which is still not strengthened by Romelu Lukaku, paired with Edin Dzeko and Lautaro Martinez upfront. Inter dominate possession, but it is difficult to create chances.

Torino, who waited more, made their first net chance in the 20th minute. Nikola Vlasic made a solo run and passed one Inter player before shooting into the net. Inter goalkeeper Samir Handanovic swiftly pulled the ball.

Inter were really frustrated throughout the first half and didn't make a single shot on target.

No goals were scored in the first half and the score remained a draw without a goal.

Inter tried to take the initiative to attack in the second half. Unfortunately, Torino is again making his first chance in this round.

This time Sanabria headed in for a cross, but Handanovic was able to secure him in the 47th minute. Three minutes later, Torino had lost Toni Sanabria who got a red card for elbowing Hakan Calhanoglu.

However, the referee saw VAR and then disallowed a red card to replace it with a yellow card.

Torino had another chance to score from a free kick in the 57th minute. Ricardo Rodriguez kicked in front of the box, the ball hit Barella and changed direction before Handanovic's leg hit him.

Inter are still struggling to create chances. Inter's best chance came in the 75th minute when Milan Skriniar headed in from a corner, but Vanja Milinkovic-Savic was denied.

Inter continued to press in the last ten minutes of the match. One of them was through Lautaro who headed in Alessandro Bastoni's cross but still sideways.

The deadlock finally broke in the 88th minute, after Marcelo Brozovic scored. Barella who was holding the ball in front of the box saw the movement without Brozovic's ball.

Gastric bait was given and Brozovic won the duel to cheat the ball into Torino's goal. The 1-0 score closed the Inter Milan vs Torino duel.
