Piotr Zielinski converted two penalties for Inter as they played out a thrilling 4-4 draw with Juventus, for whom Kenan Yildiz scored a late brace, in Serie A on Sunday. The five-goal opening half began with Marcus Thuram earning a penalty, which Zielinski converted to give Inter the lead after 15 minutes. Juve equalised five minutes later through Dusan Vlahovic and then took the lead with a strike from Timothy Weah, all within a six-minute span. After Henrikh Mkhitaryan equalised for Inter in the 35th minute, Zielinski scored his second from the penalty spot just two minutes later, handing Inter a 3-2 lead going into the break. The second half began intensely, and in the 53rd minute, Denzel Dumfries scored from a corner to extend Inter’s lead. Yildiz reduced the deficit for Juve in the 71st minute and then scored the equaliser eight minutes before time to secure the draw. Inter are second in the standings with 18 points, four behind Napoli. Juve are third on 17. Bayern Munich swept aside hosts Bochum 5-0 to remain top of the Bundesliga while also putting their heavy midweek loss to Barcelona in the Champions League behind them. Bayern took the lead with a Michael Olise free-kick in the 16th minute and doubled it through the in-form Jamal Musiala in the 26th. Apart from an early chance, Bochum were no match for Bayern’s power and the visitors struck three more times after the break with Harry Kane, Leroy Sané and Kingsley Coman. Bayern are on 20 points, ahead of second-placed RB Leipzig on goal difference. Bayer Leverkusen, the champions, are in third place on 15. In France the bitter rivalry between Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain continues in the absence of away fans at 7.45pm GMT. In Spain, Atlético Madrid can move to within one point of neighbouring Real with victory at Real Betis in a 5.30pm GMT game.
