November 23, (THEWILL) – In a commanding display of attacking football, Inter dominated Hellas Verona with a remarkable 5-0 victory at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi, scoring all their goals in an extraordinary first-half performance. The victory propelled the Milan-based club to the summit of Serie A with 28 points.
Despite an early scare when Casper Tengstedt struck the woodwork in the sixth minute, Inter responded with devastating efficiency. Joaquin Correa initiated the scoring spree in the 17th minute with an expertly executed chip over goalkeeper Lorenzo Montipo, following intricate build-up play involving Marcus Thuram.
The French forward Thuram then transformed from provider to finisher, registering two goals within three minutes. His clinical finishing demonstrated exceptional composure, twice outmanoeuvring Montipo before finding the net. The scoring continued through Stefan de Vrij, who added a fourth, before Yann Bisseck completed the first-half rout with an impressive strike into the top corner in the 41st minute.
The second period proved less eventful, though Correa nearly added to his tally when his effort struck the crossbar for the second time in the match. The comprehensive victory maintained Inter’s impressive form in the 2024/2025 campaign, while Verona remained in 14th position with 12 points.
Napoli, the previous League leaders, will have their opportunity to respond when they take to the field on Sunday. However, Inter’s emphatic victory sent a clear message about their title credentials, with their attacking department operating at peak effectiveness throughout the first half.
