It’s was a key game for Inter and Crotone.    Inter battling for a spot at least in the Europa League while Crotone battling for salvation to remain in the Serie A next season.   The winner was Crotone and the dream for salvation is gaining momentum.    Technically speaking, Inter being a superior team than Crotone, might consider this defeat a total flop.    On paper, Inter were favorites, but  Crotone  changed the script and claimed a much needed victory.

Against all odds, it is Crotone to open the score in the 18th minute.  Referee Guida giving a penalty to Crotone conceded by Inter defender Gary Medel after a handball inside the penalty area.  It is forward Diego Falcinelli to convert the penalty defeating Inter goalkeeper Samir Handanovic with a  left footed shot in the bottom left corner.   This is the 10th goal of the season by Falcinelli.

Surprise, surprise…..   Crotone increasing the score and so far controlling “the giant.”
