The situation is tense at the top of Serie A, and the situation has been further complicated by Milan's players, who defeated Inter 1-0 in the city derby tonight.
The "Rossoneri" have overtaken tonight's rival in the standings, taking second place and having the same number of points as Napoli, and two fewer than Roma.
Inter was the better rival, had a chance through Tiram, Acerbi hit the post, and Lautaro Martinez didn't take advantage of a good opportunity, while Christian Pulisic missed a chance for Milan in the first half.
But at the start of the second half, Pulisic was more precise, receiving a rebound from Salemakers' shot and slotting it into the net. It was the Rossoneri's only chance of the second half.
Tonight, after Napoli and Juventus, Inter lost their third derby of the season, and they could have at least gotten a point.
The "neroazuri" had a great chance in the 74th minute, when they were awarded a penalty - the ball was set up 11 meters from the goal by Çalhanoglu, but Menjan emerged as the winner and the absolute hero of tonight's victory. Previously, Pavlović stepped on Tiram in the penalty area.
After the 12th round, the leader of Serie A is Roma, who defeated Cremonese away - 3:1.
Roma took the lead in the 17th minute, when Sule beat Auder from about 16 meters, and Pellegrini scored in the 27th minute, but that goal was disallowed for offside.
At the end of the first half, the referee awarded a penalty to Cremonese, but after an intervention from the VAR room, he overturned the decision.
Midway through the second half, Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini received a red card, and after that the "wolf" scored two goals - the scorers were Ferguson and Franka.
Cremonese's defeat was mitigated by Folino in the referee's penalty shootout.
Lazio also achieved victory, defeating Lecce 2-0 at the "Olympique".
The scorers for the "sky blues" were Genduzi and Noslin.
Montenegrin national team player, Adam Marušić, played the entire match for Lazio.
