Internazionale beat Fiorentina 2-1 at San Siro in Serie A on Oct. 25, with two of the match's three goals coming in stoppage time, according to ESPN.

Atalanta and Frosinone drew 4-4 at New Balance Arena, accounting for eight of the 12 goals across the day's three completed matches. Genoa beat Venezia 1-0 at Stadio Luigi Ferraris.

The San Siro scoring list featured Alex Jimenez in the 65th minute, Marcus Thuram in the first minute of second-half stoppage time and Piotr Zielinski six minutes later. Zielinski scored from the penalty spot.

Jimenez's goal was the only one recorded before the end of the regulation 90 minutes. Thuram and Zielinski then scored during the additional period, bringing the match's total to three goals.

The game was one of two decided by a single goal on Oct. 25. Internazionale scored twice against Fiorentina, while Genoa's victory over Venezia came through the only goal of their match.

At New Balance Arena, Romano Schmid opened the scoring in the first minute of Atalanta's draw with Frosinone. Nikola Krstovic scored in the 14th minute, before Schmid added his second in the 17th.

Ederson scored a penalty in the 33rd minute, and Krstovic scored again in the 45th. Schmid and Krstovic each finished with two goals, together accounting for half of the match's scoring.

Five goals came in the first half, including three inside the opening 17 minutes. The first-half scoring ended with Krstovic's second goal, which followed Ederson's penalty by 12 minutes.

Giacomo Calo scored in the 48th minute, and Eljif Elmas followed in the 50th. Those goals brought the total to seven before Aleksa Terzic added the eighth in the 82nd minute.

Calo and Elmas scored two minutes apart shortly after halftime. Terzic's goal came 32 minutes after Elmas's and was the last of the eight goals in the draw.

Six players scored at New Balance Arena, with Schmid and Krstovic the only players to score twice. Ederson's goal was one of two successful penalties across the three completed games, alongside Zielinski's at San Siro.

At Stadio Luigi Ferraris, Mikael Ellertsson scored in the 25th minute as Genoa defeated Venezia. His first-half goal settled the lowest-scoring of the day's three matches, with neither side adding another.
