Today the first "Serie A" championship match was played. Local "Atalanta" and Milan's "Inter" clashed in Bergamo.
The hosts surged forward after Jeison Murillo's own goal. However, in the 25th minute, their team's goalkeeper was beaten by Rafael Toloi.
The match unfolded very fiercely, as demonstrated by the referee showing nine yellow cards. Nevertheless, neither team was able to score more in this match.
After leading the championship for almost the entire first part of the season, "nerazzurri" lost points for the second time in a row - last week they were defeated by "Sassuolo".
In a later match in Turin, footballers of "Torino" and "Frosinone" faced off. The hosts won with a score of 4-2, which allowed them to rise to the eleventh position with three points.
The winners were led forward in the ninth minute by the sniper Ciro Immobile, who had recently returned from strong European clubs and scored a penalty kick. In the first half, the guests managed to equalize the score, but then Andrea Belotti made an impact, scoring three goals for the team. He scored a brace himself, and then Marco Benassi provided an assist.
Newcomer "Frosinone" remains in the relegation zone with 15 points and could drop to nineteenth place tomorrow.
"Inter's" stumble was taken advantage of by "Napoli", who forced the aforementioned "Sassuolo" club to surrender in their stronghold. The guests scored the first goal of the match from the 11-meter mark in the third minute, but Maurizio Sarri's players did not give up and before halftime, Jose Callejon and Gonzalo Higuain turned the score in their favor.
In the second half, Naples' eleven confidently controlled the situation, and Higuain scored his second goal towards the end of the match. In 20 Serie A matches, the Argentine has 20 accurate shots - more than any other player in the major European leagues.
