In the second half, Inter’s performance improved, and they had several chances to extend their lead. Niccolo Barella missed a promising opportunity, and Benjamin Pavard was denied by a superb block.
With just 10 minutes left on the clock, Inter’s nerves were calmed when Alexis Sanchez tapped in a precise cross from Denzel Dumfries, securing the victory.
Despite Empoli’s efforts to respond, they failed to register a shot on target in the second half. Ultimately, Inter comfortably sealed the win.
With this result, Inter maintains a commanding 13-point lead at the top of Serie A. They have the opportunity to clinch the title in three weeks’ time against arch-rivals AC Milan, provided neither team drops points before then.
