INTER Milan roared eight points clear at the top of Serie A after the champions secured a 3-0 home win over Cagliari yesterday and AC Milan drew, allowing AS Roma to move into second place after they beat Fiorentina 1-0 last night.
Macedonian striker Goran Pandev slotted in a scuffed shot from Samuel Eto’o after six minutes to grab his third goal since rejoining Inter last month.
Defender Walter Samuel then powered in a header from a corner and Argentina’s Diego Milito netted his 14th goal of the league campaign just after the break.
AC Milan failed to win for the fourth straight game in a 0-0 draw at struggling Bologna where winger Mancini, who signed on loan from Inter on Monday, made his debut in place of the dropped David Beckham. The Rossoneri hit the bar but still miss the driving force of the injured Alexandre Pato.
A fight between fans before kick-off and a scuffle in the players tunnel marred Antonio Di Natale’s hat-trick in lowly Udinese’s 3-1 win over fourth-placed Napoli, who had goalscorer Christian Maggio sent off on half-time for diving.
Sampdoria’s 2-1 win at bottom side Siena meant the Genoa club climbed to sixth spot, above free-falling Juventus who drew 1-1 at Livorno on Saturday.
