Lautaro puts Inter on his shoulders: brace and 2-1 against Cremonese. Inzaghi surpasses Milan, he’s -10 from Napoli | First page

Inter’s second round starts in high gear. Inzaghi’s team defeats Zini of Cremona 2-1 on the wings of Lautaro Martinez, overtakes Milan in second place and moves within 10 points of Napoli. Yet the match started badly with the advantage of Ballardini’s team sealed by a feat by Okereke. However, the Nerazzurri didn’t break down, they created a lot and, despite a super Carnesecchi, they brought home the 3 points. Star performer of the evening the Argentine striker who rises to 11 goals, equal to Lookman and only behind Osimhen
Inter started immediately in forcing, forcing their opponents into the area and accumulating 5 corners in the first flashes of the match. Acerbi tries first, then Dumfries but neither of them worries Carnesecchi. Cremonese, on the other hand, passes at the first opportunity: in the 11th minute Okereke receives from afar, sets up on his own and shoots towards Onana’s goal. His right foot is precise to the millimeter and goes into seven: it’s 1-0, his fifth in the league and one of the best in the entire 2022/23 Serie A. The grey-red advantage is a blow to Inzaghi’s team who still suffer away from home. Dzeko tries to shake her but his placement is wide. He is always the Bosnian but the most dangerous. On a new corner kick, the eighth, the former Roma strikes on the fly and with a sure shot: Carnesecchi does everything possible and blocks but Lautaro Martinez arrives first on the loose ball. The Argentine’s volley evened the score and put the Nerazzurri back in the race. The match is vibrant: first Dzeko nearly takes the lead, then it’s up to Benassi who worries Onana with his back heel and then again to Martinez with a dangerous left foot. On the siren double chance Inter. From a standstill Dimarco starts a left lash on which Carnesecchi flies, also very good on Lautaro’s rebound.
In the second half the race does not change the canvas. Inter dominated but didn’t break through, Carnesecchi rejected Dimarco’s attacks but had to give up in the 65th minute. It’s another play by Dzeko as a playmaker that unlocks the game. With a precise through ball, he freed his Argentine teammate in the area and the world champion could not be wrong. Inzaghi then rotates his goals in view of the Italian Cup, Asllani, Gosens, Lukaku and Correa enter and Lautaro’s 2-1 holds up until the 90th minute. The last emotion is a cross car from Chiriches, Inter takes second place and concentrates on the cup.
