Inter Milan Show Hunger Again Under New Coach In “Silent Revolution” | OneFootball

Inter Milan showed grit and hunger in their 2-0 win over Cagliari on Saturday night, with Cristian Chivu praised for the steady improvements being made.

The result marked a second consecutive Serie A victory for Cristian Chivu’s side and hinted at growing belief within the squad.

Lautaro Martinez struck early before Pio Esposito sealed the points late on.

The Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews, praised the performance, calling it a “silent revolution” under the new coach.

Inter are rediscovering the intensity that took them to two Champions League finals in three years.

Chivu has demanded more aggression and vertical play, while keeping some of Simone Inzaghi’s structures intact.

Despite the win, questions remain and the Nerazzurri still struggle to kill games off quickly.

Yet the signs of progress are clear.

Chivu is gradually refreshing the squad and instilling belief but it will take time.

His methods appear to be paying off as Inter climb back into the fight at the top after an initially shaky start to the 2025-26 campaign.
