After Romelu Lukaku set up Lautaro Martinez’s opener in the 3-0 win over AC Milan yesterday, the Inter strikers have provided more goals to each other than any other partnership in Serie A.
Martinez nodded in an early Lukaku cross as Inter sealed a comprehensive win in the Derby della Madonnina, leading to Opta to take to Twitter to highlight the effectiveness of their partnership.
The duo have set each other up for six goals in the league this season, two more than any other pairing.
“6 – Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku have now combined for six goals in Serie A in the current season, at least two more than any other duo. LuLa,” Opta tweeted.
