Serie A | Inter 2-0 Torino: Calhanoglu celebrates Scudetto

Inter celebrated their Scudetto with yet another victory, though Hakan Calhanoglu only managed to break Torino with a brace after a controversial red card.

The Nerazzurri were crowned Champions of Italy with Monday’s Derby della Madonnina win, so this game was moved to give them time for the open-top bus parade. Federico Dimarco and Francesco Acerbi were carrying knocks, with Denzel Dumfries suspended, while Toro missed Koffi Djidji, Perr Schuurs, Gvidas Gineitis and banned Karol Linetty.

See how it unfolded on the Liveblog.

It was a bright start from the Granata, as Yann Sommer’s gloves were stung by Ricardo Rodriguez and Duvan Zapata, while the Colombian striker’s header also skimmed the upright.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan intercepted a wayward pass to send his lob over the bar, while Samuele Ricci and Nikola Vlasic just failed to get their diving headers to a Duvan Zapata cross.

Marcus Thuram accidentally got in the way of a well-placed Hakan Calhanoglu daisy-cutter, but there was a breakthrough when Adrien Tameze was at first booked for bringing down Mkhitaryan just outside the box, then it was changed to a red card following a VAR On-Field Review.

Inter took the lead soon after, as Valentin Lazaro was caught in possession by Nicolò Barella, they moved it quickly from right to left with Lautaro Martinez and Mkhitaryan until the Calhanoglu half-volley from 14 yards using his weaker left foot.

Moments later, Thuram was tripped by Matteo Lovato inside the penalty area for Calhanoglu to convert and double the Nerazzurri’s advantage. The midfielder visibly asked Lautaro Martinez if he wanted to take the spot-kick, but the captain left it to his teammate.
