Serie A | Como 3-4 Inter: Thrilling comeback sends leaders 9 points clear
Inter completed an extraordinary comeback from 2-0 down to win 4-3 in Como with Marcus Thuram and Denzel Dumfries doubles, going nine points clear and knocking Cesc Fabregas down to fifth.
These sides already drew here 0-0 in the Coppa Italia semi-final, with the second leg scheduled for April 21. Lautaro Martinez and Yann Bisseck were out injured, even though the captain insisted on accompanying his teammates, so Francesco Pio Esposito and Francesco Acerbi stepped in. Como got Jacobo Ramon and Jesus Rodriguez back, leaving only Jayden Addai unavailable, but chose an all-attack formation.
With Juventus winning last night, they needed a victory to keep hold of fourth place after last week’s draw with Udinese, but the Nerazzurri had the chance to go nine points clear after Napoli’s draw in Parma.
See how it all unfolded on the Liveblog.

Assane Diao dribbled past two to burst into the box and his shot was charged down, but Alex Valle’s acrobatic attempt on the rebound accidentally kicked Manuel Akanji in the head, while Martin Baturina blasted over from distance.
There was a triple Como opportunity on 31 minutes, as first Denzel Dumfries made a spectacular sliding tackle to stop Douvikas tapping in the Diao roll across from six yards, then another two attempts from Maxi Perrone and Alex Valle were charged down by Francesco Acerbi and Dumfries.
It was only a warning, as the hosts took the lead soon after. Diao’s back-heel flick send Nico Paz on a mazy run into the box, where his low finish off the inside of the left foot was parried one-handed by Yann Sommer, with Alex Valle quickest to react on the rebound from 12 yards.

Dumfries tested Jean Butez with a header on a corner at the back post, and the Nico Paz free kick skimmed the bar.
On the stroke of half-time, Nico Paz ran onto the long Butez ball and bent a snooker shot into the far bottom corner with the inside of the left foot, despite Sommer getting his fingertips to it.

In stoppages, Inter got one back, Marcus Thuram holding off Ignace van der Brempt to get his studs to a Nicolò Barella cross from the right, prodding it in from seven yards.
The comeback was completed after the restart, as Marc-Oliver Kempf intercepted a Barella ball over the top, not realising how close Thuram was with Butez well off his line, so the Frenchman lobbed score into an empty net.
Substitute Jacobo Ramon nodded straight at Sommer from close range after a free kick, but instead it was Inter who scored in a very similar situation, with Dumfries meeting the Hakan Calhanoglu set play at the back post.
Baturina bent his finish just wide moments later, then Sommer had his gloves stung by a screamer of a Nico Paz free kick, but instead Inter added a fourth.
Akanji nodded down a Calhanoglu free kick at the back post, finding Dumfries to sweep in relatively undisturbed first-time from 12 yards.
Ange-Yoan Bonny was penalised for a lunge on Nico Paz right on the edge of the area, but VAR confirmed the contact was inside the box. Lucas Da Cunha fired into the near bottom corner, despite Sommer getting his fingertips to the penalty.
It wasn’t over, as Alberto Moreno had two huge chances to equalise, first a free header off target from the Nico Paz cross, then prodding the finish onto the crossbar from close range.
Valle 36 (C), Nico Paz 44 (C), Thuram 45+1, 49 (I), Dumfries 58, 72 (I), Da Cunha pen 89 (C)
