Venezia 0–2 Inter
Inter Milan left Venice with all three points after a tense Serie A encounter was decided by two own goals in the closing stages.

The breakthrough arrived in the 80th minute, when Matías Moreno inadvertently put the ball into his own net. Just two minutes later, Redouane Halhal was also credited with an own goal, leaving Venezia with little time to recover.

Venezia vs Inter: Match Highlights
Watch the key moments from Venezia's meeting with Inter, including the two late own goals that settled the game. The video opens on YouTube.
A Cautious Opening at the Penzo
Inter began by trying to establish control through possession, while Venezia kept their defensive lines compact and looked for opportunities to attack quickly. The opening stages offered limited space between the lines, making it difficult for either team to create clear chances.
Venezia had an early opportunity through Che Adams, whose effort following a cross from Antoine Hainaut went wide. Inter responded with attacks of their own, but goalkeeper Filip Stanković was alert when Ange-Yoan Bonny found space inside the penalty area.
Venezia Threaten, but the Deadlock Remains
As the first half developed, Inter continued to circulate the ball around the home side's defensive block. Piotr Zieliński and Dimarco attempted to create openings, while Alessandro Bastoni also threatened as Inter looked for a breakthrough.
Venezia were not limited to defending. The home side created dangerous moments of their own, including a chance for Gianluca Busio, who could not keep his effort on target after a promising move down the right.
Second Half: Inter Keep Searching for a Way Through
The contest remained difficult after the restart. Inter made changes at half-time, introducing Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Nicolò Barella and Manuel Akanji as Cristian Chivu looked to refresh his side.
Inter continued to push forward, but Venezia remained dangerous on transitions. Ivan Provedel was required to make important interventions, including a save from Adams.
80th Minute: Matías Moreno Scores an Own Goal
Inter finally broke through in the 80th minute. Thuram drove forward on the right and delivered a cross into the penalty area. Under pressure as the ball travelled across the danger zone, Venezia defender Matías Moreno turned it into his own net.
82nd Minute: A Second Own Goal Seals the Win
Venezia's difficult ending became even worse two minutes later. Çalhanoğlu delivered a corner, and Carlos Augusto flicked the ball on at the near post. The delivery then took a decisive deflection off Redouane Halhal and crossed the line for Inter's second goal.
