Inter stunned by Catania

Soccer Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Catania, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Catania scored three times in the final 20 minutes of their 3-1 upset win over Inter Milan at the Angelo Massimino on Friday.

Diego Milito scored in the 54th minute for Inter, but had his opener canceled out by a goal from Maxi Lopez. Sulley Muntari then received his second yellow card for handling the ball inside his own penalty area, and Catania's Giuseppe Mascara converted the penalty kick with nine minutes to play before Andres Martinez secured the win with a goal in the 90th minute.

The result leaves Inter just four points clear of second-placed AC Milan, which hosts Chievo on Sunday, while Catania took a major step towards safety with the win as they moved eight points above the drop zone.

Catania started well and had a chance to take the lead in the 12th minute when Adrian Ricchiuti was stopped eight yards from goal by Inter goalkeeper Julio Cesar.

Inter's only real scoring opportunity arrived in the 34th minute when a shot from Wesley Sneijder was comfortably saved by Mariano Andujar.

The visitors went ahead nine minutes after halftime when Samuel Eto'o brought down a ball from midfield and played it across the face of goal to Milito, who swept it into the net from six yards.

Catania threatened with a free kick from Mascara four minutes later, but they found themselves on level terms in the 74th minute when a low cross from Pablo Alvarez was finished off first-time by Lopez.

Muntari picked up a second yellow card when a free kick struck his arm inside the area, and Mascara beat Cesar with a delicate chip that sent the keeper the wrong way from the penalty spot.

Martinez secured the points right before stoppage time when he tracked down a ball on the left wing, cut into the area, and slid a shot past the keeper.

Roma sits in third place and they travel to Livorno, while fourth-placed Palermo visits Udinese as they continue their push towards a top-four spot.

Sampdoria travels to Bologna, Genoa hosts Cagliari, Siena invades Juventus, Bari squares off with Lazio, Atalanta visits Parma and Napoli meets up with Fiorentina.
