Inter striker Edin Dzeko has reached a big milestone in Serie A, as his start for the Nerazzurri in their 3-2 win over Atalanta yesterday evening was the Bosnian’s 250th total appearance in the Italian top flight.
Moreover, Dzeko’s match-winning brace means that he has scored eight goals against La Dea since moving to Roma in 2015, meaning that he has not scored more against any Serie A opponent.
Football statistics account Opta highlighted the 36-year-old’s achievement in a tweet.
Their tweet read, “8 – Edin #Dzeko, for him today 250th game played in Serie A, has scored 8 goals vs Atalanta: against no team he did better in the top-flight (eight also vs Sassuolo and Bologna). Habit.”
