The clear 3-0 win against Cagliari ended the Nerazzurri’s season perfectly. Which are also at the top in a couple of other statistics
Get on the carousel, there’s room for everyone. Inter bid farewell to a dream 2024 with the aim of at least repeating themselves, trying to improve an almost perfect year. Last season Simone Inzaghi’s team dominated the championship, winning the scudetto with record numbers. A trend confirmed also in the current season, because if the recovery of the match against Fiorentina were to smile, the Nerazzurri would find themselves alone at the top of the Serie A table, +2 on Atalanta and Napoli. In the first 17 days of the current championship, Inter have already scored 45 goals. That is 2.65 centers per game. A number that rises considerably if combined with the scores from last season in 2024: the total is even 92 centres. By far the best offensive department in Italy, but not only that. Because Inter also has the best defense – 29 goals conceded -, it is the team that has won the most games (27) and lost the fewest (2, including an inconsequential one against Sassuolo who have already won the Scudetto. The other in the September derby).

Fifteen. It is the number relating to Inter players who have already scored this season. A very strong indication of how for Inzaghi all the members of the squad have a very important weight: everyone plays, everyone scores. No team in Europe’s top 5 leagues has sent so many players to the net. The feeling is that the number could soon rise again, considering that several Nerazzurri protagonists have so far remained on the sidelines due to injury or have disappointed. Above all Marko Arnautovic, who found the goal both in the Champions League and in the Italian Cup, but not yet in Serie A. And Taremi, who in the Champions League broke free from the penalty spot but is still at zero in the championship. But also defenders or midfielders who scored some heavy goals last year: Acerbi, Pavard, Asllani, for example. And speaking of defenders, there is another statistic in which Inter excels in the world: 12 goals have come from the Nerazzurri backline. Better than… everyone, in Italy and Europe. Yet another confirmation has arrived in Cagliari with Bastoni’s squash, but it is a trend that has generally worked for years. More precisely since Simone Inzaghi took over as Nerazzurri coach. Everyone plays, everyone scores. From the Nerazzurri area to the opponent’s area. Inter’s 2024 was a dream. And with the Super Cup in Arabia starting in a couple of days, 2025 could start just as well.
