Inter Primavera put three past Bologna with Topalovic, Lavelli and Cocchi

Inter looked to be making things happen at the start of the game, as well as remaining alert in defence. In the 10th minute, Berenbruch tried a shot from outside the box but it was off target. In the 21st minute, Addessi took advantage of a quick restart to get a shot away from a good position, though Zamarian was ready and waiting. The Nerazzurri managed possession well but struggled to get into space against a compact Bologna. The deadlock remained unbroken for the full first 45 minutes.

The second half started off in the best way possible for Zanchetta’s lads. After only two minutes, in the 47th minute, came Topalovic’s opener - he picked up a ball on the edge of the box to unleash a powerful strike that beat the Bologna keeper and gave the Nerazzurri the lead. Bologna responded with Battimeli in the 61st minute but the shot ended up in the side netting. Two minutes later, Quieto freed himself up on the left and put in a dangerous cross but the Bologna goalkeeper came out to beat it away.

The second goal was coming and in the 70th minute, Lavelli was the fastest to get on the end of the corner, perfectly taken by Topalovic, and place a precise tap-in. Inter were in control of the game but in the 75th minute, Ravaglioli gave the Nerazzurri defence a scare with a turning shot. We managed to put the game to bed in the 77th minute: Cocchi unleashed a clinical shot from 20 meters out, this bagging his second goal in two league games.
