Here are the interesting stats and insights from our victory against the Venetians:

THE NERAZZURRI'S NUMBERS

The Nerazzurri's winning streak continues.

Him again, Lautaro Martínez. The Nerazzurri captain was ready at the most important moment, scoring the decisive goal and giving Inter the three points. With this goal, Lautaro reached the milestone of 135 goals for Inter. Not only that: with the goal against Venezia, the Inter No. 10 has scored 13 goals in his last 13 matches against newly promoted teams.

DIMARCO AT THE TOP

Federico Dimarco confirmed his status as one of the best wing-backs in the league, demonstrating his quality both defensively and offensively.
