Analysis of Inter’s victory at San Siro against Red Star by journalist Paolo Tomaselli. Everything was easy for the Italian champions who prevailed against the Serbian team with a clear 4-0. “The Star is broken more than the Red and the climb to the mega ranking of the new Champions League for Inter can officially begin. After the draw and the performance in Manchester, Inzaghi’s team leads the way against an opponent who for years has been a faded copy of the glorious team that was, and wins the first victory”.
Four goals and four different scorers for the Nerazzurri: Calhanoglu in the first half, Arnautovic, Lautaro Martinez and Taremi in the second half. “With seven changes compared to Udine’s starters and a run-in not yet completed, Inzaghi can hardly ask for more from an evening that does not seem affected by the investigation into the ultras that exploded the day before, also because San Siro and the Curva have not lost their voice, saving only a few ad personam choruses”.
