Martinez double at Udinese fires Inter level with Serie A leaders

Lautaro Martinez struck his first goals of the season for Inter Milan with a brace in Saturday's 3-2 win at Udinese which moved the champions level with Torino and local rivals AC Milan at the top of Serie A. Davide Frattesi's deft finish after just 43 seconds was followed by Argentina forward Martinez's strikes moments before and after half-time. The win in Udine saw Inter bounce back from Milan derby defeat last weekend and move up to 11 points after six matches. Torino, who host Lazio on Sunday, currently hold top spot by virtue of second-placed Milan and Inter having played a game more. "After the derby we kept quiet and worked hard and I think you saw that on the pitch," said Martinez to DAZN. Martinez's brace will be great news for coach Simone Inzaghi whose team host Red Star Belgra...

Fonseca on Milan derby win: “We played with the same structure”

In a surprising turn of events, Milan emerged victorious in the highly anticipated derby against Inter, marking a significant milestone for the team. Paulo Fonseca, Milan’s head coach, shared his thoughts on the match in a post-game interview with Dazn. Fonseca began by emphasizing the importance and rarity of this win: “Milan hasn’t won this match in a long time, and tonight we truly deserved it.” He went on to highlight the exceptional performance of his team, stating, “I can’t recall a team that has managed to create as many problems for Inter as we did today.” When questioned about potential tactical changes, Fonseca was quick to clarify: “No, we didn’t change anything. We played with the same structure. I only asked Fofana to drop between the center-backs during the build-up phase. ...

Man City blunted by ‘giant performance’ Inter in Champions League stalemate

Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi praised his team's "giant performance" after holding Manchester City to a 0-0 draw in their Champions League opener. The expanded tournament format, designed to pit Europe’s top clubs against each other more frequently, saw both sides start their campaigns with a hard-fought stalemate. Inter Milan boss Simone Inzaghi said the Italian champions produced a "giant performance" to leave Manchester City frustrated in a 0-0 draw to begin their Champions League campaign on Wednesday. One of the selling points of the new expanded Champions League format was to bring together the continent's elite teams more often before the knockout stage. A repeat of the 2023 final, won 1-0 by City, did little to set the pulses racing, but Inter will feel they should have inflict...

Nesta: ‘I would have signed up for a draw against Inter before the match’

Alessandro Nesta expressed mixed feelings after Monza’s 1-1 draw against Inter Milan in Serie A. The Monza coach was pleased with his team’s performance but admitted there was a tinge of regret given how close they came to victory. “I’m happy with the performance because the players are committed,” Nesta said in his post-match interview. “If someone had told me before the match that we would draw 1-1 with Inter, I would have signed for it, even though there’s obviously some disappointment. I see the team improving and I’m confident.” Nesta felt Inter’s equalizer had an element of luck to it: “Their goal was a bit fortuitous because if the cross hadn’t been deflected, the ball wouldn’t have ended up there. The players were unlucky.” The coach also explained his limited use of substitution...

AC Milan and city rivals Inter have rejected a plan to renovate their Stadio Meazza home at San Siro but revived proposals to build a new joint stadium in the same area. The move is the latest twist in a saga involving the two Serie A clubs and local authorities for the past five years. Mayor Giuseppe Sala said: “After an in-depth analysis the clubs concluded that the (San Siro) stadium cannot be revamped in an affordable way … they don’t think it is feasible.

Thuram double helps Inter rout Atalanta in Serie A

Reigning Serie A champions Inter Milan have thrashed Atalanta 4-0 in the league thanks to a double from Marcus Thuram. Marcus Thuram scored twice and played a starring role as reigning Serie A champions Inter Milan went to the top of the league with a crushing 4-0 win over Atalanta. The result extended Inter's unbeaten start to the season and tied them at the top with Torino, who beat Venezia 1-0 earlier in the day. Both teams have seven points from three games. Inter started the match in devastating style with two goals in the first 10 minutes. The opener was a disaster for Atalanta defender Berat Djimsiti. He stretched to stop Thuram's cross but succeeded only in deflecting the ball past his own goalkeeper. There was no luck about the second seven minutes later. Nicolò Barella volle...

Darmian and Calhanoglu score as Inter sail past harmless Lecce

Inter captain Lautaro Martinez probably picked the best possible match to miss through injury as his teammates sailed to a comfortable 2-0 win over a timid Lecce side in their Serie A Matchday 2 fixture at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. As a sell-out crowd of 70,921 fans welcomed the champions back home for the new season, Matteo Darmian was the one who gave his side an early lead that allowed the Nerazzurri to control the first half with ease. Hakan Calhanoglu converted a penalty to double Inter‘s advantage in the second half, sealing an effortless victory. It was important for Simone Inzaghi to silence his doubters after their slip-up at Genoa in the season opener, albeit with a much sterner test to come next week against Atalanta. Inter secure early lead in a dominant first-half Inter‘...

Lautaro Martinez doubtful for Inter’s clash with Lecce

Inter Milan and manager Simone Inzaghi have received concerning news ahead of their second Serie A match against Lecce. Team captain Lautaro Martinez is experiencing muscle fatigue and is now doubtful for the upcoming fixture. The Argentine striker has reported fatigue in his adductor muscles, putting his participation in the Lecce match in question. Inzaghi will make a final assessment of Martinez’s condition on Saturday.

This setback comes at an inopportune time for Inter, as they look to build momentum following their season opener. Martinez’s absence, if confirmed, would be a significant blow to the team’s attacking prowess. The coaching staff will now have to consider alternat...
