Inter Milan Shares Serie A Top Spot with Atalanta

Inter Milan triumphed over Cagliari with a 3-0 victory, securing a provisional top spot in Serie A alongside Atalanta, both with 40 points. Key contributions came from Alessandro Bastoni, who opened the scoring with a header, Lautaro Martinez, who ended his goal drought with a volley, and Hakan Calhanoglu, who sealed the win with a penalty. Martinez's performance was particularly notable as he had not found the net since November 3, yet his recent goal reflects coach Simone Inzaghi's faith in him as a vital asset to the team. The win marked Inter's fifth consecutive victory in the league, while Cagliari remained in the relegation zone following their fourth straight defeat. Looking forward, Inter aims for further triumphs in the Supercoppa Italiana and their quest for a 21st Scudetto.
