Inter Milan dominate Parma to go top of Serie A
ROME: Inter Milan surged to the top of Serie A on Saturday thanks to three goals in the first half an hour to outclass Parma 3-0 at the San Siro.
Inter Milan secured a 3-0 victory over Parma at the San Siro, taking the lead three times in the first half hour and moving to the top of Serie A. Despite the absence of captain Lautaro Martinez, who rested until the hour mark after his return from Argentina and Lionel Messi's international farewell match, the reigning champions showed no signs of fatigue.
Parma's goalkeeper, Petar Sucic, conceded a goal in the 13th minute, followed by Hakan Calhanoglu doubling the lead from the penalty spot five minutes later. Marcus Thuram sealed the win after 31 minutes with his third goal of the season, expressing his satisfaction with the team's performance after the international break. Inter now have 16 points from six games, three points ahead of Roma and Lazio, who play later on Sunday.
In the late match, Napoli defeated Frosinone 3-0, giving coach Massimiliano Allegri his third league win of the season, but Napoli's third-place position is now just a point behind AC Milan. Fiorentina, on the other hand, fell back into the relegation zone after a 2-1 loss to Genoa, who secured their first win of the season.
