Inter dropped three crucial points by losing 2-1 to Bologna yesterday evening, but their night didn’t always look to be headed in that direction.

The Nerazzurri opened the scoring very early on through a brilliantly-taken solo goal by wingback Ivan Perisic, coming not even three minutes into the clash.

As football statistics account Opta pointed out in a tweet, this was the fastest goal scored by the Nerazzurri in Serie A this season.

Their tweet reads, “2’53” – Ivan Perisic has scored the earliest Inter’s goal in Serie A this season (2 minutes and 53 second); indeed, it was the fastest goal netted by the Nerazzurri in a top-flight match since Lukaku’s against Genoa in February 2021 (32 seconds). Blaze.”
