The Nerazzurri kicked off the 2026-27 season with a dominant 4-1 victory against Monza at Stadio San Siro. Piotr Zienlinski created an opening for Pio Esposito, who utilized his excellent hold-up play to find Andy Diouf out wide. The Frenchman then sliced open the Nerazzurri midfield, allowing 21-year-old Gustavo Varela to equalize with a low-driven shot past Josip Martinez.
Despite a shaky first half, Inter regained the lead in the 48th minute when Piotr Zienlinski capitalized on a mis-cleared cross and chipped the ball past the Monza goalkeeper. Croatian playmaker Petar Sucic made an immediate impact after coming on for Turkish holding midfielder Calhanoglu, finding Diouf with a brilliant through ball, doubling Inter's lead.
Yann Bissegic sealed the win in the 63rd minute, gliding past the Monza midfield and scoring a goal courtesy of an assist from Esposito. The Italian champions showcased their strength and dominance from the start, proving to be a force to be reckoned with in their home opener.
