Inter falling at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium. It looks just a nightmare for Inter’s dream to reach toward the 3rd position to be in the Champions League next year. Torino with a brave battle at the Meazza claiming the victory after being down by a goal to win the match with a 1-2 score.
Things starting to work for Inter. In the 16th minute, Referee Guida giving a penalty to Inter conceded by Torino defender Emiliano Moretti for a handball inside the penalty box. Moretti also getting a yellow card. It is Inter forward Mauro Icardi to convert the penalty defeating Torino goalkeeper Daniele Padelli with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner.

Torino equalizing the score in the 56th minute with midfielder Christian Molinaro defeating Inter goalkeeper Samir Handanovic with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner. The assist is by forward Maxi Lopez. Bad news for Inter as immediately, in the 57th minute, Referee Guida giving a red card to defender Miranda following a foul on Torino forward Andrea Belotti. It was the second yellow card for Miranda. Inter remaining with 10 players.
Chaos for Inter remaining now with 9 players!!!! In the Torino taking the lead in the 73rd minute following a penalty conceded by Inter defender Yuto Nagatomo after a foul on Andrea Belotti. It’s Belotti, himself, to take control and covert the penalty defeating goalkeeper Handanovic with a right footed shot in the bottom left corner. Belotti running to celebrate the goal while the face of Inter coach Roberto Mancini says it all…. it’s problem for Inter.
