Inter Milan 5-2 Roma – Argentina Megastar “Carries” Nerazzurri To All-Important Serie A Win | OneFootball

Lautaro Martinez ‘carried’ Inter Milan to a morale-boosting 5-2 win over old rivals Roma in last night’s Serie A showdown. 

According to FCInter1908, El Toro delivered a statement performance on his return from injury, helping Inter get back to winning ways.

Inter Milan headed into the international break on a three-game winless league streak.

Indeed, Cristian Chivu’s side last went three consecutive Serie A games without winning three years ago.

Moreover, second-placed AC Milan took advantage of Inter’s slump to close the gap to only six points.

Therefore, the Nerazzurri desperately needed three points last night.

Inter’s dip in form coincided with the absence of Lautaro Martinez, who injured himself against Bodo/Glimt in February.

However, the Argentine striker painted his long-awaited return to action with flying colors.

Indeed, he opened the scoring in less than 60 seconds, turning home a teasing through ball from Marcus Thuram.

The resurgent French star also set up his captain for his second goal at the start of the second half.

Furthermore, Lautaro’s 16th Serie A goal of the season put the Nerazzurri in the driver’s seat, setting the tone for a landslide victory.
