The beautiful game of football never fails to deliver.

On Saturday, the Inter Milan vs Hellas Verona game gave fans extraordinary entertainment as the Nerazzuri secured all three points thanks to some late drama.

Lautaro Martinez had given his side the lead in the first half, pouncing on a through ball from Henrikh Mkhitaryan to stab his team ahead.

Verona’s substitutions in the second half paid off, as Thomas Henry found the equalizer by connecting with a cross from Duda barely a minute after coming on.

The game seemed meandering towards a frustrating draw for Inter, but Simeone Inzaghi’s side pushed on, eventually paying off.

As reported on EuroSport, Alessandro Bastoni' saw his effort in the 93rd minute come off the post, but Frattesi was on hand to tap in to give his side a 2-1 win.

There was still time for late drama as Verona were handed a penalty deep into stoppage time, but Henry turned into a villain for his side as his spot-kick hit the post.

Frattesi’s celebrations go viral

For Inter, it was a necessary win that boosted their title credentials.

However, the most talked about part of the game was not the emphatic manner in which Inzaghi’s side got the win but instead how it was celebrated by the players, particularly Frattesi.

After turning the ball in, the 24-year-old midfielder ran up to the fence, separating fans from the dugout, attempting to jump over it.

In all excitement, he failed to cross over and resorted to celebrating from the fence, with his teammates joining soon after.

Videos of the celebrations have taken social media by storm, as Inter players almost undressed their match winner in all the excitement. The whole incident was fascinating to watch.

Frattesi will not care, however, as the league leaders earned themselves three crucial points.
