Inter Milan bounced back from a dismal draw against Bologna with a morale-boosting 3-1 home win against Empoli last weekend.
Lautaro Martinez grabbed the spotlight with a superb long-range strike to open the scoring.
Denzel Dumfries and Marcus Thuram joined El Toro on the scoresheet.
Meanwhile, Francesco Pio Esposito netted the only goal for Empoli against his parent club.
Despite conceding from the only shot on target, Yann Sommer remains indispensable between the sticks.
Sommer took to Instagram after the game to celebrate the win, saying: “Forza Inter.”
