Serie A 2024-25: Roma deals hammer blow to Inter title hopes with 1-0 win at San Siro
Inter Milan’s Serie A title hopes took a massive blow when the defending champion suffered a 1-0 home loss to AS Roma on Sunday, giving Napoli the chance to open up a three-point gap at the top when it hosts Torino later on Sunday.
Inter, which bowed out of the Coppa Italia on Wednesday with a 3-0 semifinal second-leg defeat by AC Milan, suffered its third loss in a week as its treble-bid risks coming apart at the seams.
Roma took the lead at the San Siro in the 22nd minute through Matias Soule and Inter could find no way back and fell to a second successive league loss after its 1-0 defeat by Bologna last Sunday.
Inter, which needs to recover before Wednesday’s Champions League semifinal first-leg at Barcelona, is second in the standings, level on 71 points with leader Napoli, while Roma moves up to fifth place on 60 points.
