On Sunday, the remaining eight matches of the 11th round took place in the Italian league. In the last minutes, "Inter" snatched the victory, while "Palermo", sharing the leader's position with Milan's club, also won three points. Meanwhile, "Lazio" achieved a crushing victory against "Udinese". "Inter" managed to defeat "Parma" away with a score of 2-1 thanks only to a goal scored in the last minutes. The guests took the lead in the 15th minute. Zlatan Ibrahimović received the ball facing away from the goal, but the Swede flicked the ball forward and released an unstoppable shot at the opponents' goal. However, "Parma" did not give up and managed to equalize the score after 12 minutes. Antonio Bocchetti sent the ball into the penalty area, where it was met by Igor Budanas, and the Croat sent the ball into the net with one touch. Nevertheless, luck smiled on the Italian champions towards the end of the match – a pass from Mariano Gonzalez reached Julio Cruz, who headed the ball into the goal, and although the goalkeeper amazingly saved the shot, the Argentine sent the rebound into the net with his foot. However, the match ended bitterly for the "Inter" club – Zlatan Ibrahimović received a second yellow card for time-wasting and had to leave the field earlier. "Palermo" continued their excellent run of results at home by convincingly defeating the "Torino" club 3-0. The hosts took the lead in the 43rd minute after Eugenio Corini's goal, and in the 69th minute, the advantage of the Sicilian club was increased by David Di Michele, who found himself alone against the opponent's goalkeeper Christian Abbiati and flicked the ball past the Italian. The victory for "Palermo" was definitively sealed by the Brazilian Amauri, who scored with a right-footed shot in the 79th minute. "Lazio" finally ended their unsuccessful period at home by crushing the "Udinese" team with an impressive score of 5-0. Former "Udinese" player Stefano Amauri scored two goals within the ranks of the capital team. Two goals were also contributed to the team's victory by Tommaso Rocchi, while the team's captain Massimo Oddo scored the fifth goal with a great penalty shot. Tomas Danilevičius played from the 61st minute, but his team, "Livorno", lost 2-3 to the "Catania" team away. The visitors took the lead 2-1 after 60 minutes thanks to a goal from Paulinho, but as soon as the Lithuanian entered the field, "Catania" was able to equalize the score in the same minute, and the hosts snatched the victory with a precise shot into the goal by Giorgio Corona in the 90th minute. "Ascoli" continued their crisis at home, losing to the "Empoli" team by a narrow score of 1-0. The visitors celebrated the victory thanks to a goal scored by Antonio Busce in the 7th minute.
