Inter produced a dramatic comeback at San Siro on Saturday, overturning a two-goal deficit to beat Napoli 3–2 in a thrilling Serie A encounter.
Napoli looked firmly in control after Matteo Politano and Rasmus Højlund put the visitors 2–0 ahead early in the second half. But Inter captain Lautaro Martínez sparked the revival, pulling one back before Marcus Thuram levelled the contest late on.
The decisive moment came in the 91st minute, when Martínez struck again from a corner to complete his brace and send San Siro into delirium. The victory preserves Inter’s perfect start to the Serie A season and underlines the Argentine striker’s importance to the defending champions.
Martínez finished last season as Serie A’s leading scorer with 17 goals, and his latest performance once again demonstrated his ability to deliver in decisive moments.
