STADIO GIUSEPPE MEAZZA (Milan) – Inter proved too much to handle for a Roma side who saw their 12-match unbeaten streak halted by the Nerazzurri, who scored three times before conceding a late goal to the visitors.
While the Biscione offered an impressive collective performance, Marcelo Brozovic shone again as he scored a cracker in the first half with a superb finish which showed how complete his set of skills is.
Beyond playing a vital role in Inter’s build-up, the midfielder is giving a major contribution in his side’s offensive production in what is arguably the most delicate moment of the season.

After pulling the strings of his side’s midfield throughout the season, the Croat scored his first two Serie A goals of the season in consecutive matches, in a time of the year in which every point could prove decisive. After netting a crucial opener at Spezia, Brozovic offered a moment of magic to double Inter’s lead against Roma and inflict a major blow to his opponents’ confidence.
