Julio Cruz was fouled in the area allowing to the Swedish striker to open the score in the 26th minute of the game, from the spot.

Ivan Cordoba's blunder five minutes later made it 1-1. The defending champions couldn't leave it that way as Esteban Cambiasso restored their lead, seconds before the break, when he slotted in Ibra's assist.

The Nerazzuri's big man stretched the lead to 3-1 with a powerful shot scoring his 11th goal of the season.

Fernando Forestieri cut the lead to 3-2 in the dying minutes but that was not enough to earn them anything from this match.

Inter are now on top of the Serie A with 46 points seven ahead of second-placed AS Roma.
