Inter was cruising to a solid victory as they added the third two minutes after when Edin Dzeko got on the end of a pass inside the box and fired into the bottom left corner leaving the goalkeeper helpless.

The away side didn’t stop as they added the fifth goal in the 61st minute when Edin Dzeko latches on to a precise through ball from Francesco Acerbi before unleashing an unstoppable shot into the bottom left corner from the edge of the area.
Inter then crowned their effort with a sixth goal as Lautaro Martinez was in the right place at the right time to get to the rebound inside the box and gleefully rifles the ball low inside the right post.
This win pushes Inter Milan into fourth position with a chance to qualify for the Champions League next season.
