Inter stunned by Udinese, Vlahovic fires Juventus to win at Genoa

Inter Milan slumped to a shock 2-1 home defeat to Udinese on Sunday to lose early ground on Serie A leaders Napoli and rivals Juventus, who won 1-0 at Genoa thanks to Dusan Vlahovic.

Cristian Chivu's team trail by three points the champions, Juve, Roma and promoted Cremonese who all have two wins from their opening two fixtures of the new season.

"We started well but we weren't fluid. We didn't make the right plays and we struggled to create," said Chivu to DAZN.

Inter looked on their way to a thumping victory in the 18th minute when Denzel Dumfries ended a confused passage of play by tapping into an empty net.

However, Dumfries was then at fault for handling in the area, giving Keinan Davis a chance to score from the penalty spot in the 29th minute which he did not waste.

And France's Arthur Atta stunned the San Siro five minutes before halftime with a beautiful curling strike, his first in Serie A, which would give Udinese a win few would have predicted prior to kickoff.
