Inter… was bombarding Napoli with ten players from the 60th minute and with Lautaro breaking the Gordian knot in stoppage time, they won 1-0 and with it the Italian Super Cup!
She doesn't say to let it out of her hands! The Super Cup is its own competition and it proved it against Napoli! In the Italian Supercoppa in Riyadh, Inter dominated against the anemic Partenopei who were left fighting with ten players from the 60th minute and with Lautaro's golden goal in stoppage time won 1-0 to be crowned Italian super champion for the third time in a row!
From the start of the game the Nerazzurri looked to have the better of the pitch and threatened for the first time in the 15th minute when Dimarco shot over the bodies from an advantageous position. In the 31st minute it was Lautaro's turn to waste a great chance with a misdirected header, while seven minutes later he found the net but the goal was disallowed for offside by Thuram at the start of the phase.
Defiant until then in the appetites of Inter, Napoli tried to surprise at the start of the second half and in the 51st minute wasted their best chance of the match, when Sommer drove Kvarachelia's impressive curler into a corner. However, when it seemed to be balanced, Simeone's dismissal with one hour left… cut off the legs.
The last half hour turned into an arena with the Partenopei trying to survive the pressure of Inter who had camped outside the area. In the 73rd, Turam missed from an ideal position, while in the 89th, Golini beat Arnautovic to keep the scoreless. Moments later, however, Lautaro finally found the solution. At 90+1 and after Pavar's turn in the area, the Argentinian jumped to the second post and found the net for the coveted 0-1.
And after Golini beat Tsalhanoglou in stoppage time, the score did not change, nor did the fate of the game with Inter winning the trophy for the third time in a row, equaling Milan's record from 1992-94.
