Lautaro Martínez continues in world champion mode: he converted again in the victory of Inter

Since returning to Italy, Lautaro Martínez has rid himself of all the bad luck he had at the World Cup and hasn’t stopped scoring. El Toro scored again in a win for Inter, this time in a 2-0 defeat against Lecce and has now reached 17 goals in Serie A.

Inter recovered quickly from the fall of the previous weekend. Without a doubt, superior from start to finish, he returned to victory as a venue for the 25th date of the Italian championship. StillLautaro was fundamental when he scored the second goal for his team and the neroazzurri he asserts himself in the Champions League positions despite still being far from the super striker Napoli.

The pressure of the visit lasted only a handful of minutes. Inter were able to quickly get around the problem and started making merits to disturb the rival goal. Thus, after 29 minutes of the first half, Henrij Mkhitaryán nailed the 1-0 lead for those led by Inzaghi. Just for game development against a visitor with few tools to keep annoying the landlord.

Already in the second half, with great control from Inter, the Dutchman Dumfries overflows on the right and crosses into the wide area for the appearance of Martínez. First with his right leg, the ex Racing stamped the 2-0 even more reassuring. Practically solved story despite still missing more than half an hour to play. ANDThe Argentine, who has reached 14 goals in Serie A this season (17 this season), was substituted 20 minutes from time.

The Nerazzurri have thus reached second position, collecting 50 units. He continues in the Champions League qualifying positions despite still being far from a Napoli (65) who will surely return to the Olympics in a few dates. The next stop for Lautaro and company will be next Friday against Spezia. Four days later they will play a rematch in the round of 16 of this Champions League against Porto.

With today’s, Lautaro is his ninth goal in 2023 and he has 17 so far in the tournament that Napoli leads comfortably with 65 points, fifteen more than the 50 that Inter, his immediate pursuer, collects.

In less than 20 days, Toro Martínez will travel to Argentina to participate in the FIFA appointment where our country’s national team will celebrate the world title won in Qatar against Panama and Curaçao. The first match will be played on March 23 at the Monumental Stadium, while the second will be played on March 28 at the Madre de Ciudades Stadium in Santiago del Estero.
