In a hard-fought Serie A clash, Inter Milan edged out Venezia with a narrow 1-0 victory, courtesy of an early goal by Matteo Darmian. The match, played at Venezia's home ground, saw Inter dominate both possession and chances but fail to capitalize further after their early breakthrough.

The crucial moment came in the 16th minute when Darmian, playing as a wing-back, surged forward to finish a well-timed cross from Denzel Dumfries. This decisive goal not only marked his second strike of the season but also highlighted his importance in stepping up during key moments.

Venezia, despite sitting near the bottom of the table, displayed commendable resistance. Their goalkeeper, Stankovic, made a series of impressive saves, including stopping a powerful volley from Mehdi Taremi and keeping Lautaro Martinez's shots at bay.

Inter's defense, led by Milan Skriniar and Stefan de Vrij, held firm against Venezia's counterattacks. Simone Inzaghi's tactical adjustments ensured the team maintained their slender lead until the final whistle. This win brings Inter within one point of league leaders Napoli, intensifying the title race as the season progresses.

Looking ahead, Inter faces a challenging fixture against Roma next week, a match that could further shape the dynamics of the top four race. With key players like Lautaro Martinez and Nicolo Barella in form, Inter fans have much to anticipate in their quest for another Serie A title.
