Inter look to extend their lead at the top of Serie A to 13 points, and it's so far so good thanks to the efforts of one Federico Dimarco.

With names like Lautaro Martinez, Marcus Thuram and Nicolo Barella, you don't often think of the defender as a difference maker.

But he's done it again for Cristian Chivu's side on Saturday against Genoa!

Dimarco volleyed home from a tight angle at the half-hour mark to put the hosts in front inside a rocking San Siro. He now has 20 goal involvements this season.

To make the moment event better, he impressively also leads Serie A in goal involvements this season, ahead of Lautaro, Como starlet Nico Paz and Juventus' Kenan Yildiz.

A moment for defenders, please!
