MILANO, Italy (AP) – Inter Milan led the Serie campaign to a perfect start on Monday when Marcus Torrum scored twice in a comfortable 5-0 victory in comfortable Turin.
Alessandro Bastoni glanced at the header home from a corner kick after 17 minutes, and Tulam added 18 minutes later, two seconds later.
Lautaro Martínez took advantage of a defensive mistake to make it 3-0 early in the second half, with Thuram coming to four just after the time mark.
Ange-Yoan Bonny completed the scoring after another defensive upset.
As a result, new intercoach Christian Chibb and fans hope that the team can put the poor finish from last season behind it.
Inter narrowly lost Scudetto to Naples and succumbed to Paris Saint-Germain in the one-sided Champions League final.
Udinese will draw with Verona
Previously, Udinese and Verona completed a 1-1 draw in the Nuruma 1-1.
Both teams finished with 44 points last season and there was nothing in the opening game of the season.
Both goals also came from the corner in the second half.
Udinese scored first when Thomas Christensen headed home for Sandy Lobrick’s right foot delivery.
But 20 minutes later, Suat Serdar responded the quickest to Giovane’s knockdown, pinching it to score from the point blank range.
