Mehdi Taremi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan carried Inter Milan to a scintillating 4-0 romping of Red Star Belgrade on Tuesday evening.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, as reported by FCInterNews, the veteran duo earned the highest ratings for their stunning performances in a significant UEFA Champions League win.
Taremi has yet to find his feet in Serie A. However, he has been remarkable in Europe.
Following a decent display against Manchester City, the 32-year-old threw a spectacle against Red Star.
His sophisticated sense of the game saw him make two crucial interceptions in the final third, leading to the goals.
Indeed, he robbed Rade Krunic of the ball to set up Marko Arnautovic for Inter’s second.
Only 12 minutes later, he outplayed Uros Spajic to assist Lautaro Martinez.
Considering his massive contribution, Martinez was right to give the ex-Porto striker a chance to score from the spot.
As if there was ever any doubt, Taremi seized the opportunity to cap off a memorable night.
Taremi’s name was all over Inter’s fantastic triumph.
Meanwhile, Mkhitaryan couldn’t get on the board. But he did what he does best.
He was all over the place, moving into the channels, making progressive runs forward, and getting himself into promising positions.
It was a pity he couldn’t score, while there’s a feeling he could’ve avoided an early yellow card.
Joining their teammates on the list of top performers was Lautaro Martinez, who scored off the bench.
The Inter skipper is seemingly back at his best after a frustrating start.
After a match-winning double against Udinese, he converted his first chance against Red Star for his first European goal this term.
In addition to the group, Simone Inzaghi deserves much of the credit, having pulled the strings from the dugout.
