Calhanoglu fires Inter to nervy Cagliari win, Como stun Napoli

Inter Milan's Hakan Calhanoglu opened the scoring for the champions with an early goal in the Serie A win against Cagliari at the Unipol Domus. The Turkish midfielder netted a first-time strike from the edge of the box after nine minutes, setting the tone for a dominant performance from the visitors. Calhanoglu continued to impress in the second half, but his team's lack of composure in front of goal proved costly as they were outshot and outshot 29 to 15 by Cagliari.

Despite that, Cagliari held on for a 1-0 victory, putting them top of the table after two games. In other results, Como stunned Napoli 2-1 in a home match, with Martin Baturina scoring the opening goal and Rasmus Hojlund equalizing for the hosts. Kevin De Bruyne came on as a substitute for Napoli but was unable to secure a win. Como's victory moves them up to four points, while Napoli remain in third place with three points.
