Inter Milan secured a 2-0 victory over Atalanta in their Serie A match on Sunday, March 16, 2025. This win extended Inter’s lead at the top of the table to three points over Napoli, while Atalanta remained six points behind in third place.
The match was pivotal in the title race, with both teams finishing with 10 men. Atalanta’s midfielder Ederson received two yellow cards within a minute, leading to his dismissal in the 81st minute while the score was still 1-0. Inter’s goalkeeper, Yann Sommer, made a crucial save earlier in the game, tipping a Mario Pašalić header over the bar to maintain the lead.
Inter’s goals came in the second half, with Carlos Augusto scoring in the 54th minute and Lautaro Martínez adding a second in the 87th minute. This victory marked Inter’s third consecutive Serie A double over Atalanta.
Atalanta’s manager, Gian Piero Gasperini, expressed frustration over Ederson’s sending off, suggesting that the referee’s decision negatively impacted the game’s outcome for both teams and spectators. Despite this setback, Gasperini remains optimistic about Atalanta’s prospects in the remaining nine games of the season.
Looking ahead, Inter will face Bologna in their next Serie A fixture, while Atalanta will play against Lecce.
