“Good grades are raining down”, as Tuttosport wrote, after Inter Milan’s 4-1 victory over Cremonese as the newspaper’s player ratings reflect the Nerazzurri’s dominance, with Ange-Yoan Bonny taking centre stage on his first start for Cristian Chivu.

The French forward scored once and provided three assists, earning a match-best 8/10 rating.

“Better than this is hard to imagine,” wrote the Turin-based paper, via FCInterNews, calling his performance the highlight of the day.

Behind him, Nicolò Barella, Federico Dimarco, and Cristian Chivu all received 7.5, recognising the team’s fluid attacking play and tactical balance from the coach.

Barella was praised for his all-action display, “pulling out his full repertoire, including a goal.”

Meanwhile Dimarco shone with “an assist for Bonny, a goal, and another disallowed,” constantly tormenting Cremonese’s right flank.

Lautaro Martinez earned 7/10 for scoring early and leading the line with composure, while Bastoni matched him with the same score after repeatedly pushing forward from defence.

Tuttosport highlighted Chivu’s growing imprint on the side, describing Inter as “perfect for over 80 minutes.”

The only slight notes of criticism were for Carlos Augusto and Dumfries, both rated below par.

However, overall, the paper’s verdict was emphatic: Inter’s machine is firing on all cylinders and Bonny was the catalyst for powering it forward.
