In a remarkable showcase of prowess, Inter secured a decisive 2-0 win against Cagliari in the Serie A’s second round nightcap.
With two consecutive victories, they now stand level with Milan, Napoli, and Verona at the summit. The contest at Unipol Domus saw the Nerazzurri’s seamless performance, orchestrated by Dumfries at the 21st minute, converting Thuram’s well-placed assist into a goal. The relentless Lautaro Martinez doubled their lead just thirty minutes in.
A second difficult half for Inter
During the second half, Inzaghi’s squad tactfully controlled the game, encountering minimal challenges, and clinched an unquestionable victory.
This second outing of the season reaffirmed their defensive solidity, evident from their unmatched record of zero goals conceded. The midfield exhibited both quantity and quality, complemented by the dynamic runs of their wingers and Lautaro’s consistent goal-scoring prowess.
Thuram, significantly more impactful in the play, proved instrumental in both goals, demonstrating his versatility.
Inzaghi’s side maintains pace with their primary title contenders and primes themselves for the upcoming Fiorentina clash, the final fixture before the hiatus.
