Inter won three big points at San Siro against Como on matchday 17 of the season. The Nerazzurri played a good game and won 2-0 thanks to goals from Carlos Augusto and Thuram. The win over Como highlights various fun facts and interesting statistics:
Simone Inzaghi's side are closing out 2024 in the best way. The Nerazzurri have won four consecutive games in Serie A for the first time since between January and March, 10 in that case. In general, there is an interesting stat: Inter have picked up 13 home wins in a row against a single opponent, Como, for the first time in Serie A.
The backheel, the exchange with Zielinski and then the goal that put it to bed. Once again against Como, Marcus Thuram showed all his efficiency and determination. Tikus has made 22 goal contributions, 18 goals and four assists in Serie A in 2024. No one has done better in this period. Moreover, after the goals against Parma and Lazio, he has bagged in three consecutive league games for the first time since December 2023.
The last home game of 2024 saw us celebrating Lautaro Martinez. Ahead of kick-off against Como, the Inter captain was awarded for reaching an extraordinary milestone: 300 appearances in a Nerazzurri shirt. On the pitch of the Meazza, the Nerazzurri number 10 received a celebratory shirt with the number 300 from the President and CEO Sport Giuseppe Marotte and Sporting Directory Piero Ausilo. The entire stadium gave the captain a long applause, making it an even more memorable moment.
He's started to get a taste for it and this time it came in front of the fans at San Siro. With his header against Como, Carlos Augusto has bagged two in two in Serie A for Inter. The Brazilian is becoming an added weapon in attack.
Once again, it was him to leave a mark. Hakan Çalhanoglu got the assist for Carlos Augusto's decisive opener and made it 150 goal contributions in the Big-5 European leagues with 76 goals and 74 assists. Since his debut in the Bundesliga in 2013/14, only four midfielders have reached this milestone: De Bruyne, Reus, Di Maria and Payet. Another incredible stat that underlines his incisive nature on a global scale.
