SportsTranscript
00:00sold out crowd 63,000 just a reminder this match is on paramount plus exclusively so
00:09switch over there if you're not already. For just the fourth time this season Artem Dovbik
00:13looking to be more clinical in front of goal for Ivan Yurich and Davide Fratezi are to
00:19the bench. Marcus Turam the fourth goal scorer in Serie A with seven goals in seven games.
00:26The official message is for not having accompanied their promises with facts. As we're underway
00:31from Stadio Olimpico it is Roma playing host to Inter. Angelino's square but won back by
00:41Chalonolu. Mkhitaryan decent combination play and space to run. Altaro Martinez left for
00:47Turam and a wonderful strike and a learn to it was Miles Villar in the Roma goal. This
00:52is brilliant again quick combinations and Dybala magic and he pull off Pellegrini towards
01:00the byline whips across and straight into Sommer who tipped it onto the post not the
01:04most convincing but just about on top of it. Sommer just trying to push it wide no he's
01:11trying to catch it and that's unusual from Sommer that could have been way worse from
01:17him how lucky is he that he gets bailed out by his own post that could have easily been
01:21an own goal so. There's going to be a change here and it's Chalonolu who's going to make
01:26way can't see too many signs of him looking uncomfortable one imagines even it is the
01:3312th minute that it's for an injury. Oh this is terrible news Champions League coming up
01:37this is the last thing that you want to see and yes it doesn't look that serious maybe
01:42it's precautionary. This is also one of the areas where for the moment Inter are struggling
01:48for death. Havard is it's loose but he's not made to pay for it. Turam in space for
01:53that daisy a lung busting run but Turam will go it alone. Here's Marcus Turam with a block
01:57in from Ndika. Mkhitaryan measuring his strike. Oh it's off the woodwork. He caught that sweetly.
02:06What a hit this is. Not the cleanest attempt from Turam and how about this for Mkhitaryan
02:13he catches it on the bounce. Look at the way this ball dips. It's a brilliant hit from
02:18the midfielder after two really clumsy moments from Benjamin Havard. Will now launch in.
02:28Havard the flick on Lautano with the header but not enough behind it to really troubles
02:34Vilar. Is going on now. This is a Cherby down. And this is all in the first half in such
02:42a congested part of the calendar for Inter and every other team that has European implication.
02:49And is it just. Yeah there's no contact. This is all on his own.
02:57Was it a hamstring that he felt?
03:02It's going to be a sub once again so Inter lose two starters in the first half. We saw
03:06leaving in the 12th minute. Now a Cherby.
03:25Roma have largely not been picked apart by this Inter team.
03:28No more difficult challenges to keep them at bay. Keep them from getting into their flow.
03:36Dovic strong center forward play. The challenges of De Vrij. Pellegrini is on to it. Pellegrini
03:48the save from Somer and well beaten away out of the danger. Better from Roma now. Pellegrini once
03:56again popping in that central area and that's very much within his range. Edge of the box.
04:02Trying to stroke it into that bottom corner but Somer reacted very quickly.
04:10His goal scoring has been.
04:12Dibala coming back now with plenty of numbers going forward. Here's the options to pick out.
04:33Angelino will lift into the area and it's one in the air there by Celik who continued his run.
04:42And there is the halftime whistle. Chances at a premium for either side. Roma nil. Inter nil
04:53at the break of this one. Here to Paolo Di Bala and Manu Kone just about got the shots for man on
05:01but not in enough time to turn away. That's brilliant from Turan. The striker coming all
05:06the way back. Fratezi. Barrela giving time and space but not threatening enough with his hit.
05:21Too aggressive there from Celik and Lautaro who are strongly bumping into each other.
05:26Xanameh in there as it's into the heart of that area and punched away from Somer.
05:30Zalewski's got to control. He fell and now Fratezi can go off and running. Two on one.
05:37Di Marco and look at Di Bala at full stretch getting back. Fratezi towards
05:42Lautaro and can take advantage and he opens the scoring. Watch out Serie A.
05:49Lautaro Martinez is starting to hit form. The breakthrough coming on the hour.
05:55Giving away possession. His suicide on the end. He loses his footing. He trips over the ball.
06:02Leads to a two-on-one but look at Di Bala sprinting back. Just putting a body on Di Marco.
06:09Ball doesn't go there in the end. Comes to the edge of the box and from I don't even know where
06:15Comes to the edge of the box and from I don't even know where he came from Lautaro.
06:20Somehow he's able to just get in between three defenders. Celik got any sort of touch he could
06:30onto that ball. What a finish. That is vintage. Lautaro Martinez first to trip from Zalewski.
06:41Where he's probably better suited than sending in crosses. Six foot four.
06:49Chested down for Dumfries. Aitudin with the fresh legs. Go off and running. Denzel Dumfries
06:55and the save from Zvilar. It was always going to be a difficult angle to beat
07:00the Roma goalkeeper but Dumfries given all sorts of room. Up a man for about 60 minutes
07:08before that breakthrough came. Celik. A decent idea there. Piselli and on he goes.
07:14Have to keep it here with Baldanzi who tries the cross and the deflection. Didn't fall kindly
07:20to a Gelo Rossi player and now Turam is breaking and Fratezi's in space. Turam will just keep it
07:29and go on here. Turam runs into the traffic but on he goes and Zvilar making himself big.
07:34Smothers it. Frustrated there with Correa. Zvilar's body check Correa after that.
07:42And Turam when he cut inside shoulder to shoulder with
07:45the youngster Piselli. Piselli goes flying off of Turam.
07:49And now double change coming after all the work that Dybala did. He'll make way for Matias Sule.
07:56And Cristante will come off for Enzo Lefe. And another one Chris. Three of the new
08:02signings from the summer. The big money signings. Lefe who cost well over 20 million euros.
08:08He's going to come off for Enzo Lefe. And another one Chris. Three of the new signings from the
08:14summer. The big money signings. Lefe who cost well over 20 million euros.
08:19Parella tried to get going but didn't quite come off. And Sule and Piselli bounce into each other.
08:28So many changes on. They don't look like they played together very much. DiMarco.
08:34Can Inter put this one to bed? Dumfries arriving and Dumfries and a big save from Zvilar to keep
08:40it at one nil. Baltansi. Matias Sule from long distance. And there needs to be something special
08:52to beat Somer from that range. Yeah but that's what happens when you're facing a team that plays
08:57such an effective low block. The players will get frustrated and in the end the only option
09:02available is a long distance effort like that one. This is that second Dumfries attempt. He's
09:08had two good chances on goal since coming on. That time the angle was closed down very quickly
09:14by Zvilar who does a good job once again. Zekicelic will lift in towards the area.
09:20Dumfries can head clear. Only as far as Lefe. Mario Hermoso clips the crossing and Sule the
09:29header across into a dangerous area of a Mkhitaryan red. Juric tracking it so he can give it.
09:38Straight to Mancini.
09:42Lefe. Sule. Needs a moment of quality. Sule will go for it. And a save from Somer.
09:51And doing well again to parry away from the danger.
09:58Turaman and Dika going for it. Free kick to Roma. And there is the full-time whistle.
10:06Another defeat at the start of this.
