Federico Dimarco and Lautaro Martinez shone in Inter Milan’s thumping 5-0 Serie A victory over Sassuolo last night. 

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, it was a dominant and well-deserved triumph for Cristian Chivu’s rampant side.

Inter Milan maintained their formidable league form at the Mapei Stadium, extending their winning run in Serie A to five matches.

As a result, they’re now boasting an eight-point lead over second-placed AC Milan, though the Rossoneri still have a game in hand.

Federico Dimarco has re-established himself as one of the world’s best wingbacks under Chivu this season.

Indeed, his hat-trick of assists yesterday stretched his Serie A tally to 13, making him the division’s most creative player.

Meanwhile, Lautaro Martinez netted his 14th league goal of the season, steering six clear of Como talisman Nico Paz.

Therefore, El Toro has already laid the groundwork for the Capocannoniere-winning campaign.

More importantly, the Argentine has set himself up perfectly for the upcoming clash against Juventus at Stadio San Siro.
