Football: Cagliari stun Inter at San Srio

MILAN: Cagliari turned on the style to hold Inter Milan to a 2-2 draw at the San Siro on Sunday. After leaders Juventus were held to a scoreless draw at home to Lazio on Saturday, Inter had a chance to close the gap on the Serie A champions. But despite Rodrigo Palacio giving the hosts an early lead, a superb double from striker Marco Sau had the Sardinians in front and it took an own goal from Davide Astori for Inter to pull level. Club president Massimo Moratti hit out at what he said was another questionable refereeing decision. “That’s three games in a row we’ve suffered injustice and not got the result we deserved because of a refereeing decision,” said Moratti. Inter’s first draw in 13 matches left them in second place on 28 points, four adrift of Juventus.
