Thus, the team led by Christian Chivu will sleep at the top of the table, putting pressure on their main competitors for the title.

The Neapolitans will have a big challenge ahead of them this Sunday, against Juventus, at 4:45 p.m. (Brasilia time), while the Milanese fans will travel to Turin on Monday, also at 4:45 p.m.
Brazilian Luis Henrique started the match as a starter and was one of the highlights for Inter Milan. It was he who initiated the counterattack and pass that resulted in Lautaro Martínez’s goal, just 11 minutes into the first half, and others lost by the Argentine striker in front of goalkeeper Butez’s goal.
This early goal disrupted the best Italian defense – so far with seven goals conceded, alongside Roma -, which includes the Brazilian Diego Carlos. Up front, Nico Paz, a prominent figure on the visiting team, was closely watched and failed to score on Sommer’s goal.
Dominant on the pitch, Inter scored a second goal at the start of the second half, with Marcus Thuram, after a ball taken from a corner. In the final part of the match, Çalhanoglu scored with a shot from outside the area. Another Brazilian, Carlos Augusto, came on in the final minutes and, despite little action time, completed the 4-0 victory.
