Wide winner in Cagliari, Inter put the pressure on Atalanta

These three achievements in the second half rewarded the great domination of Simone Inzaghi’s players, who had until then been clumsy in front of goal, like the two missed opportunities by Lautaro Martinez, whose header went over while the Argentinian striker found himself alone in front of the goal (28th), and whose cross shot at ground level with his right foot fled the frame (53rd). The locals were also kept afloat for a long time by their goalkeeper Simone Scuffet, author of decisive saves against Marcus Thuram (3rd) and Nicolò Barella (41st). The Sardinians came close to reducing the gap in the 85th minute, but Sommer magnificently repelled a left-footed shot from incoming Mattia Felici.
