Inter Milan continues their impressive season, reclaiming the Serie A summit with a 1-0 victory over Fiorentina. Lautaro Martinez, in stellar form, netted the lone goal with a near-post header from Kristjan Aslani’s corner in the 14th minute. This marks Martinez's 22nd goal of the season. Inter's unbeaten streak extends to 15 games, securing three crucial points. Under Simone Inzaghi, they have won 17 of 21 Serie A matches, matching a record from the 2006/07 season under Roberto Mancini. Despite a controversial penalty awarded to Fiorentina, Nico Gonzalez's second-half spot-kick was saved by Inter's goalkeeper Yann Sommer. The win positions Inter above Juventus, setting the stage for a highly anticipated clash between the top two teams next Sunday at the San Siro.
