Inter Milan talisman Federico Dimarco soaked up the limelight as the headline performer in yesterday’s 5-0 demolition of Sassuolo.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 28-year-old wingback produced a Roberto Carlos-like performance at the Mapei Stadium.
Cristian Chivu’s high-flying side reigned supreme in Emilia-Romagna, putting mid-table Sassuolo to the sword.
Indeed, the Nerazzurri smashed a five-goal barrier for the second time in their last three Serie A outings to move eight points clear at the table’s summit.

Despite failing to get on the scoresheet, Federico Dimarco earned the ‘Man of the Match’ award for his standout performance.
Indeed, the Italian star delivered a hat-trick of assists, setting up Yann Bisseck, Marcus Thuram, and Manuel Akanji.
In doing so, Dimarco took his seasonal tally to 13 Serie A assists, cementing his status as the league’s most creative player.
Meanwhile, marquee summer signing Luis Henrique scored his first goal for the club.
However, he made the wait worthwhile, as he slotted home a headline-grabbing half-volley to cap off the 5-0 scoreline.
Lots of ppl used to complain about di marco, can remember some saying he will never be a worthy starter for Inter. Oh how they have been proven wrong
It didn’t help when Inzaghi held him back by subbing him out early as well.
It turns out Inzaghi held a lot of players back with his favourite players getting over used and robotic substitutions. Zielinski is like a new signing and Dimarco plays for 90 minutes maintaining a goal scoring threat throughout the match.
Yep. The same that cry about Bisseck now, or Diouf, etc. They are negative people who find something to complain about no matter what.
