The first match after securing the Italian national title did not cause any problems for Inter. The Milanese received Torino at the San Siro and were able to add three points without too much difficulty: 2-0. Hakan Çalhanoglu was the big man with two goals.

Particularities

The first half had a surprising number of chances for Torino, but the visitors failed to convert them into goals. The turning point of the game came just after halftime, when Adrien Tameze had to be sent off the field after a foul on the last man. A few minutes later, Inter took advantage of the numerical advantage when Çalhanoglu scored with a half-volley: 1-0.

A few minutes later the match was immediately brought to an end. Marcus Thuram was tackled in the box by Torino defender Matteo Lovato, after which Çalhanoglu scored his thirteen Serie A goal of the season from eleven meters: 2-0. The victory was no longer in danger after that.
