Guarin guides Inter through
AFP, MILAN: A Fredy Guarin piledriver fired Inter Milan two points clear at the top of Serie A with a 1-0 win over AC Milan, for whom Mario Balotelli made his second debut on Sunday. Having failed to qualify for Europe this season, both Milan giants are desperate to make up for years of underachievement — and on this performance may now fancy their chances of a top finish, especially given Juventus’s early season woes.
Inter now sit two points clear of Chievo with a maximum nine points although Roma, also on seven points, are the Nerazzurri’s more notable challengers. Champions Juventus, with two losses and a draw so far, are down in 16th, eight points off the pace as they endure their worst start to a season in living memory.
Milan shaded a lively opening half in which Carlos Bacca and Luiz Adriano kept the Nerazzurri defence on their toes, home ‘keeper Samir Handanovic notably saving at Adriano’s feet early on, while on-loan Manchster City forward Stevan Jovetic drilled just wide of Diego Lopez’s post at the other end.
