The match was drawn 2-2. I have to say the performance of the Genoa players surprised me a lot today. The Genoa players were able to put up a tough resistance against the Inter Milan players. Genoa had only 32% ball possession in this match. But even then, genoa's players were able to create plenty of attacking opportunities. Inter Milan tried to dominate the match. But the team failed to score full points due to some weak defense. Serie A is likely to be very competitive this season.

Yeah this was a pretty good opening match and what Genoa did in today's match was really outstanding where they not only frustrated Inter's attacking players with their defense but they were also able to trouble Inter's defense in today's match.
I actually had a prediction that Genoa would play passively by defending all the time but their performance broke my prediction because they played bravely by trying to keep up with Inter's fast game in today's match.
1 Point becomes very valuable and it is worth it for Genoa to get in today's match because they really deserve it.
On the other hand, for the first 4 matches it seems that Serie A is quite tight where only 1 point from each team playing today.

This is definitely a good hope because with this we still hope that the competition for Serie A becomes more interesting even though we are still at the beginning of the season.

The results of the match were very surprising, all ended in a draw, and it was quite unique. Previously I thought Inter Milan, AC Milan and Fiorentina could secure full points in the opening match, because they were more dominant than their opponents. While the results of the Empoli versus Monza match were fair for both teams, because they were not more dominant than each other. Inter Milan could be said to be unlucky, because they failed to maintain their lead in the final minutes. While AC Milan could be said to be quite lucky, because they were able to escape defeat before the match ended.

On the other hand, with a number of draws indicating that Serie A this season has become more competitive, difficult to predict and of course will be more interesting to follow. In addition, we are certainly very curious about the course of the next match, overall it is a match between the top and non-top teams. In theory Napoli, Bologna, Roma, Lazio, Atalanta and Juventus have a higher chance of securing full points, but the results of the match could be the opposite. Personally I am very curious about Napoli performance under the new manager Conte, hopefully they can rise so they can enliven the Scudetto fight in this season.
