"Ange-Yoan Bonny, in for the rested Lautaro Martinez, created an early chance with a run and shot that was parried away by Wladimiro Falcone. Bonny then thought he had won a penalty, but a VAR check ruled that Danilo Veiga had played the ball. Falcone punched away a Nicolo Barella header from close range shortly after the break, then gathered a shot from Andy Diouf as the hosts continued to struggle to open up a dogged Lecce defence."
"Milan face a tricky trip to sixth-placed Como on Thursday, while Napoli were held to a costly 0-0 draw at home by Parma earlier on Wednesday. The first chance of the game fell to Scott McTominay, who scored both goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Inter. His half-volley deflected into the side netting, and although McTominay had the ball in the net minutes later, the goal was ruled out after a VAR check for an offside in the buildup."
Inter secured a 1-0 home win over Lecce thanks to Francesco Pio Esposito's 78th-minute rebound strike after substitute pressure. Ange-Yoan Bonny created early danger and thought he won a spot-kick before VAR ruled Danilo Veiga had played the ball. Wladimiro Falcone produced several saves, including parrying efforts from Bonny, Nicolo Barella and Rasmus Hjlund. Lautaro Martinez came off the bench and had a volley saved before Esposito finished the rebound. The victory moved Inter six points clear of Milan and Napoli and represented a potential turning point in the title race. Earlier, Napoli were held 0-0 by Parma.
