MILAN (ITALPRESS) – He does not get the three waste goals that would be served to conquer the first absolute place (with the net difference) after four days Inter, but still does four out of four in the Champions League. The Nerazzurri remain in full score, defeating 2-1 an agguerrito Kairat Almaty, who plays a very good race in San Siro and resists strong interist pressure with his defense. The beginning is immediately blunt for Inter, which dominates the ball possession and tries to hit with Lautaro Martinez: Anarbekov, the hero of the Champions playoffs, walls it twice. Also Spreca Pio Esposito, then Inter protests two potential directors: There doesn’t seem to be a bad contact on Frattesi or Bisseck. The Kairat comes out at the distance, exalting itself because the Nerazzurri struggle to break down his defensive wall: chances for Edmilson and Satpaev, 17-year-old jewel who will join Chelsea in 2026. Chivu gets angry and his boys, after some trouble, can hit. Lautaro Martinez, who struggles stubbornly and falls into his second chance, on a ball that seemed lost: it is 1-0 to 44′. This is the fact of the last ball played by Toro, which unlocks the race and remains in the changing room, after marking the 160th net in Nerazzurri.
Chivu starts the turnover in view of the big match against Lazio, but his hands off the plug and get to it. Shortly after he wasted with Pio Esposito, Inter distracted on a corner. Take advantage of Arad, who escapes the marking of Dumfries and marks the historic goal of Kairat in San Siro. At 55′ is 1-1 and Sommer is not exempt from guilt, with the Nerazzurri reacting throwing himself to headlong forward. Pio Esposito wasted again, but made the decisive play for the 2-1: by Carlos Augusto, who shines Anarbekov with a stone from outside. From here on, Inter only manages the match against a now demotivated Kairat, finding Marcus Thuram: 20 minutes more recovery for the attacker, who returns to the field after over a month. The French chases the goal, but the result does not change. Inter wins 2-1 and climbs 12 points, alongside Bayern Munich and Arsenal full score. Playoff mortgages, in fact, for the Nerazzurri, but now begins the beautiful: the next four challenges will be against Atletico Madrid, Liverpool, Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund. There will be the real force of Inter in the European sphere, while Kairat remains firm at the point obtained by Pafos.
