Inter Milan chalk comfortable victory over Torino

Inter Milan climbed up Serie A league table with a comfortable victory over Torino.

Marcus Thuram opened the scoring just before the hour mark, before Lautaro Martinez doubled the visitors’ advantage eight minutes later.

Hakan Calhanoglu completed the scoring from the penalty spot after Henrikh Mkhitaryan was fouled by Ivan Ilic in added time.

Torino could have taken the lead in the first half of Saturday’s game, but Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer produced a fine save to deny Demba Seck before smothering Pietro Pellegri’s header.

Simone Inzaghi’s team improved after the break, however, with Thuram putting them ahead from Denzel Dumfries’ pass before Martinez doubled their lead with his 11th league goal of the season.

Calhanoglu coolly converted his late spot-kick to put the seal on Inter’s seventh league win in nine matches.
