Impressive Away Form Continues
Inter’s win against Lecce marked their eighth consecutive victory away from home in Serie A. The team has not conceded a goal on the road in Italy’s top flight since September.

The win, which came after trailing for most of the match, sparked scenes of jubilation among Milan fans. However, tensions flared on the pitch as coach Sergio Conceicao and deposed captain Davide Calabria had a heated exchange, highlighting underlying issues within the team.
Fiorentina Revives Champions League Hopes
Fiorentina revived their bid for Champions League football with a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Lazio. The win snapped a six-match winless streak for Raffaele Palladino’s side and brought them within three points of fourth-placed Lazio. The match was marred by disciplinary issues, with both Palladino and Lazio coach Marco Baroni being sent off.
In Conclusion
Inter Milan’s dominant display against Lecce, AC Milan’s late heroics, and Fiorentina’s revival in Serie A highlight the competitive nature of the league. As the season progresses, the race for the title and European qualification spots promises to be intense and unpredictable.
