Inter striker Lautaro Martinez was the most effective player for the Nerazzurri during their 3-2 defeat to Juventus in the Derby d’Italia yesterday, according to Italian media.

The Argentina international led the line in attack alongside Romelu Lukaku and played the full match as Antonio Conte’s side fell to a controversial defeat at the Allianz Stadium.

As highlighted by L’Interista.it, Martinez stood out in the view of Italian media and received positive ratings from a wide range of outlets, as they themselves awarded him a 6.5.

Today’s newspaper edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport praised the 23-year-old for a display of hard work and effort, as well as winning a penalty for Inter and seeing an acrobatic volley questionably disallowed, earning him a 7 in their ratings.

Meanwhile, today’s newspaper editions of both Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport awarded Martinez a 6.5 and commended him for his efforts for the team, whilst Tuttomercatoweb.com felt his performance was worthy of a 7.
