Inter Milan carried out an excellent operation this Saturday evening on the 5th day of Serie A. The Nerazzurri won 2-0 on the lawn of Cagliari thanks to a well-controlled start and end of the match. Lautaro Martinez opened the scoring in the 9th minute, before Francesco Esposito seals the victory in the 82nd, only twenty minutes after his entry into play in place of Marcus Thuram.
With this success, Inter put pressure on its direct rivals in the scudetto race by returning temporarily to three points from the head. Especially since, earlier in the day, Juventus was held in check at home by Atalanta (1-1). The Bianconeri had conceded the opening of the score on a realization of Sulemana, the former player of the Stade Rennais, before Cabal egalizes to save a point. A draw that already slows down Turin ambitions in the start of the season.
For his part, Naples will carefully follow the shock of Sunday evening against AC Milan. In the event of success in San Paolo, the reigning Italian champions could widen a gap of four points at the top of the ranking, confirming their status as a big favorite.
Inter, solid and clinical, demonstrates in any case that it will be necessary to count on him this season again in the battle for the Scudetto.
