Giovane equalises Zielinski’s volleyed opener for Inter

Verona’s Martin Frese scores in own net in added time

Inter claimed a fortunate 2-1 victory at Hellas Verona in Serie A, with a brilliant Piotr Zielinski strike and a last-gasp own goal from Martin Frese securing the win.

In the 16th minute Hakan Calhanoglu’s corner found an unmarked Zielinski on the edge of the box. The Polish midfielder curled a superb right-footed volley into the top-left corner to open the scoring.

Verona struck back five minutes before the break when Giovane was released down the right, holding off the Inter defence before firing home a sharp, angled shot. In first-half stoppage time, Verona nearly turned the match around when a swift passing move around Inter’s box ended with a one-touch flick from Gift Orban that grazed the base of a post before going wide.
