Inter battling to make it to the Europa League zone. It’s just a step back for Hellas Verona losing the home game. It’s an all Argentinian victory seeing the two protagonists as leaders by scoring the two goals and providing the assists to each other: Forwards Mauro Icardi and Rodrigo Palacio.
Inter opening the score in the 11th minute with forward Mauro Icardi defeating Hellas Verona goalkeeper with a left footed shot in the center. The assist is by forward Rodrigo Palacio. This is the 16th goal by Icardi this season just 1 goal behind top scorer Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 17 goals.
