Another Torino game, another Handanovic howler, another Belotti goal. Looked like Inter would drop points until Ashley Young scored on his second consecutive outing at the Meazza.
That goal was followed 2 minutes later by Godin’s first for Inter and Lautaro’s lucky goal. Torino struggled to look dangerous as much as they tried and Inter managed to jump into 2nd place.
Samir Handanovic – 4.5: Schoolboy-ish error from the captain and the winner of the goalkeeper of the year last season. His worst game in a long time. Never looked secure.
Diego Godin – 6.5: Godin was given acres of space to run into and cross the ball and tried to make it count. The goal was well deserved, and he did well in defense too.
Stefan de Vrij – 6: Poor control for once let him down and led to the corner that cost Inter a goal. Did not dwell on his mistake and made the most of the ball and space.
Alessandro Bastoni – 5.5: Did not look as confident as Bastoni usually does. Torino were too compact for him to make runs or find passes. Not his finest game for sure.
Danilo D’Ambrosio – 5: The right wing back role does not suit D’Ambrosio at all, especially in the Conte system as that needs some pace and ability to dribble. Struggled.
Marcelo Brozovic – 5.5: Seems like an average player once again. Determination and running as always but nothing of quality to show until very late on when it got easier.
Roberto Gagliardini – 6: Roberto had a decent first half and could easily have had an assist and a goal, but that describes him as a player perfectly. Did not make any howlers.
Ashley Young – 6.5: Ashley looked like Inter’s only creative threat in the first half. Crosses were decent but he made his chances count with a fine goal and performance.
Borja Valero – 5.5: Full of running from the start but as the game wore on, he looked tired and tried to win free kicks that weren’t there. Never gave up though.
Lautaro Martinez – 6: Deserves full marks for effort but not much was on offer for him to convert to goals. Got the goal later and it was obvious his confidence is back.
Alexis Sanchez – 7.5: Heavily marked and didn’t have space to exploit his pace at all in the first half but exploded in the first 20 mins or so. Inter should keep him. Superb.
Antonio Candreva – 5: Should have at least had an assist or scored. Conte and Alexis made their feelings known to Candreva who continues to make poor decisions.
Cristiano Biraghi – 5.5: Lots and lots of running on his flank as Sanga kept him occupied. His job was to secure the flank as a substitute and Conte got what he wanted.
Milan Skriniar – 5.5: Brought on for a tiring Godin and immediately caught cold against a pacy winger. Skriniar is way better than the recent performances suggest.
Christian Eriksen – N/A: Came on much earlier than usual and looked lively. Had a decent shot saved and could have so easily got an assist if not for Sirigu’s reflexes.
Antonio Conte – 5: Conte did not try anything new tonight. Stuck to his guns and this time the plan worked for him. The win will give relief to the team and the coach.
Davide Massa – 5: Missed a clear penalty on Bastoni as per the new rules and sometimes gave away too soft free kicks to both sides. The yellow cards were correct.
Inter – 5 : Another game where Inter struggle but make a comeback. This time though they kept the doors bolted on Torino and came home with 3 comfortable points
