Inter Milan continued their impressive run with a composed 2-0 win over Cremonese at Stadio Giovanni Zini. Goals from Lautaro Martínez in the 16th minute, assisted by Federico Dimarco, and a strike from Piotr Zieliński in the 31st minute, set the tone for a match largely dominated by the visitors. This Serie A fixture saw Inter maintain their push in the upper echelons of the standings.
Early Goals Establish Control
Inter established their control early in the first half with a blend of precision and pace. Lautaro Martínez capitalized on a perfect cross from Dimarco to open the scoring. Just 15 minutes later, Piotr Zieliński doubled the lead with a fine finish, facilitated by Luis Henrique's vision. Cremonese struggled to contend with Inter's fluidity, managing only sporadic threats in response.
Cremonese's Struggles and Tactical Adjustments
Despite several substitutions aimed at shifting the match's momentum, Cremonese found themselves restricted by Inter’s commanding possession, which stood at 69%. Limited to only three shots on goal, Cremonese's attempts to break through were thwarted by Inter's solid defensive setup. Yellow cards for Federico Ceccherini and others hinted at their frustration.
Inter's Defensive Solidity and Future Prospects
Inter's backline, led by Alessandro Bastoni's impressive passing accuracy and Manuel Akanji's defensive work, ensured the clean sheet remained intact. This victory extends Inter’s fine form, having notched consecutive wins in both domestic and European competitions. As they look ahead, Inter's blend of attacking prowess and defensive resilience will be key in their pursuit of the league title.
