How the match went

Inter Milan showed its superior technical ability and dominated the away match against Udinese. Just 20 minutes into the first half, Esposito headed the ball inside the box to Lautaro Martínez, who shielded possession and, once he found space, curled a shot into the corner past goalkeeper Maduka Okoye, who could do nothing.

In the second half, at the 15-minute mark, Esposito almost got his second assist when he passed to Dimarco, who went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and scored, but the left wing-back was offside and the referee disallowed the goal.

Despite creating many chances, Inter was unable to increase the score.
