Lautaro, against Como to score 30: since he has been at Inter no one has done better than him

Of the 163 goals Lautaro has scored since day one with Inter, none of them have pierced the Como. The Argentine has played against the Larians for 90 minutes in his entire career, at Sinigaglia last season in the first leg. Upon his return he remained on the bench. In short, the data must be contextualized, the Bull can read it as a further stimulus, statistics enthusiasts as a precursor to a new record. In fact, if the Inter captain were to come unstuck against Fabregas’ team at San Siro, Como would become his personal 30th “victim” in the league, the 30th different team against which he would find the goal since his arrival in Milan 7 years ago. And he would be the only one in the same period, therefore since the 2018/19 season, to reach this number in the five best European leagues.

However, the “over 30” club in Serie A is well-fed. There are 6 players – from 2000 to today – who have scored goals against 30 teams. While at the top of the rankings there is only Gilardino who (between ’99 and 2014 and from the 14/15 to 16/17 season) celebrated against 38 different opponents. The same ones he has “punished” Messi in 16 years of La Liga. Clearly the number of opponents against which a player scores in his career depends on several factors, and above all there are the years spent in a single championship. For Lautaro, today, reaching 30 would be a “record” because he is the only one to do so in the last 7 years.

Lautaro arrives at this match against Como after the decisive brace against Pisa, those two goals with which he overtook Sandro Mazzola in the ranking of the best scorers in Inter’s history. Now Boninsegna is aiming, in third place in this special ranking with 171 goals for the Nerazzurri and 8 goals away from Chivu’s captain. Once another page of Inter history has been written, Toro can pursue other goals, even personal ones. Post Pisa had said it: “I work for the team, for Inter, for myself and for my family”. A straight and concise comment, enriched by the desire to ward off criticism in the only way an attacker can do it, that is by scoring goals: “Let’s let those on the outside speak. My job is only and solely to bring joy to the Inter fans. I still have many years left on my contract, I’m happy here, the people love me. The team always comes first. I only think about working, day after day.” Captain’s word.
