The story, neutrally told

Mixed · 2Inter Milan beat Fiorentina 2-1 at home in Serie A on Sunday 25 October, scoring twice in stoppage time after trailing. Mixed · 2Alex Jimenez put Fiorentina ahead after 65 minutes with a long-range strike that beat Inter's debutant goalkeeper Ivan Provedel, leaving the visitors set for what would have been Inter's first league defeat of the season. Mixed · 2Marcus Thuram equalised in the 91st minute, then won a penalty after being brought down by Victor Valdepenas, and Piotr Zielinski converted it in the 98th minute.

Right · 1Fiorentina goalkeeper David de Gea kept Inter out for most of the match, saving from Pio Esposito and Thuram and denying substitute Petar Sucic; Carlos Augusto also hit the bar with a header, according to AFP. Mixed · 2The result left Inter level with Lazio on 22 points; Lazio beat Parma 2-1 at home on Saturday, and AS Roma are third on 18 points. Mixed · 2Fiorentina stay 18th with four points; CNA describes this as their third consecutive league defeat, while AFP describes a winless run stretching to four games.

Right · 1Inter coach Cristian Chivu told DAZN he was unconcerned by the defensive lapse, saying "That's football: sometimes you concede" and that he wants players to respond to setbacks. AFP noted it was Inter's fifth comeback win of the season and the 10th goal they had conceded. Mixed · 2Elsewhere, injury-hit Juventus won 2-0 at Lecce, with goals from Weston McKennie in the 29th minute and Douglas Luiz shortly before the break, easing pressure on coach Luciano Spalletti. Juventus are seventh on 14 points, and Lecce's Kialonda Gaspar was sent off in the final minute. Right · 1The two reports describe McKennie's goal differently: CNA calls it a free-kick that floated over the wall, while AFP says he steered home a Luiz free-kick. Juventus had lost 3-0 at home to Lazio the previous weekend and drawn 2-2 with Rennes in the Europa League, according to AFP.

Mixed · 2Atalanta and Frosinone drew 4-4 in Bergamo, and Genoa beat Venezia 1-0, according to the reports; AC Milan were still to play away at Udinese.
