Inter's Serie A Title Hopes Diminish After Loss to Roma

Inter Milan's hopes of retaining their Serie A title suffered a major setback after a 1-0 home defeat to Roma, marking their third consecutive loss and leaving them level on points with Napoli at the top of the table. Despite a bright start and an early disallowed goal for Inter, Roma took control with Matías Soulé scoring in the 22nd minute, and the visitors continued to create several clear chances. Inter struggled to respond effectively, managing only one shot on target in the second half and lacking a cutting edge in attack. The result not only gives Napoli a chance to pull ahead in the standings but also extends Roma's unbeaten league run to 18 matches and lifts them level with Bologna in fourth place. The defeat compounds a difficult week for Inter, who were recently eliminated from the Coppa Italia and now face the challenge of recovering before their Champions League semi-final. Roma's disciplined defense and timely goal proved decisive in a match with significant implications for the title race.
