Roma-Inter 1-0 LIVE: Svilar hypnotises Bisseck and preserves the scoreline

Roma

Serie A
Roma vs Inter

Follow Roma v Inter, a big match and direct showdown valid for matchday five of the 2026/2027 Serie A season.

The standout fixture of this opening stretch of the 2026/2027 Serie A season kicks off at 18:00 at Rome's Stadio Olimpico. On the pitch are the two sides who have set the pace so far, with Roma-Inter carrying far more weight than a simple head-to-head.

Gian Piero Gasperini's Roma, driven by the Malen-Dybala partnership, boast the best defence in the league with just one goal conceded and 12 scored. More than that, they are looking more and more like a true Gasperini team on the pitch. Cristian Chivu's Inter, the reigning champions, have responded well to the defeat to Real Madrid and lead the way as the competition's top scorers with 13 goals, even if they still have a few defensive lapses to iron out.

The winners head into the long break with enthusiasm, freedom and serenity. The losers will have to work to make up ground while dealing with criticism and doubts.


ROMA-INTER 1-0

SCORERS: 6' Kone (R)



  • Goals and key moments

    26' CHANCE - Bisseck makes a huge mistake, loses out to Soulé and then charges forward alone into the Roma box. One-on-one with Svilar, though, the German centre-back is denied and it stays 0-0.


    24' CHANCE - Dybala threads a vertical pass through for Malen, who shrugs off his marker with his first touch and then fires away in an instant. The ball flies over.


    20' - Dybala lets fly with a powerful left-footed effort from distance. The ball whistles past Josep Martinez's left-hand post and goes wide by a metre.


    13' CHANCE - Roma break again, with Soulé reaching the byline from the left and pulling a cross into the middle, where Dimarco gets his intervention all wrong and effectively lays it on for Dybala. Left-footed volley, just over.


    6' GOAL -Inter fail to play out from the back and leave themselves exposed. Dybala switches play from right to left and picks out Molina, who is left unmarked, controls and pulls it back for Manu Kone. He takes a touch and shoots in the box, beating Martinez.


    3' - Balerdi tries to get in front of Thuram and ends up on the ground claiming an elbow. Massa gives the foul, but no card.


    0' Kick-off at 18:00 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
