Marcus Thuram and Yann Sommer returned to their best as Inter Milan claimed a crucial 2-0 away win over Ajax in their opening Champions League game.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the French star delivered the best response to recent controversy.

Marcus Thuram came under fire after cameras caught him laughing during Inter’s 4-3 defeat at Juventus last weekend.

However, the 28-year-old silenced his detractors with a match-winning performance in Amsterdam.

Indeed, he netted a brace to inspire Inter to a comfortable win over Ajax.

Thuram scored two identical goals last night.

Indeed, he headed home Hakan Calhanoglu’s crosses at the near post on either side of halftime.

On the other hand, Yann Sommer only had to make two saves. Yet, one of them was pivotal.

Indeed, the veteran goalkeeper denied Mika Godts in a one-on-one situation shortly before Thuram’s opener.

Furthermore, Francesco Pio Esposito shined on his Champions League debut.

Despite failing to score, the Italian striker fared well in possession.
