Inter Milan go at top despite being held by Atalanta

Milan: A late penalty save by Inter Milan's Samir Handanovic secured a point for the Serie A leaders against Atalanta in a 1-1 draw at San Siro on Saturday as they moved one point clear of Juventus. Lautaro Martinez had fired Antonio Conte's side in front after four minutes but Robin Gosens levelled for the visitors with 15 minutes remaining.

Atalanta had a golden chance to snatch all three points from the penalty spot with two minutes of regulation time remaining, but Handanovic dived to save Luis Muriel's spot kick.

Inter are top of the table on 46 points from 19 games at the midway stage of the season, but second-placed champions Juve can overtake them by beating AS Roma away on Sunday.

Atalanta remain in fifth place on 35 points, level with fourth-placed Roma.

"Looking at the table, seeing us up there, we might turn a blind eye to some issues, but the fact remains I pray we don't have any players missing, otherwise there's no cover," Conte told DAZN.

"Atalanta have been working with the same coach for four years, they brought in the players suited to that style of football.

"We've just been together for six months, so being 11 points clear of them in the table is impressive." Agencies
