The match against Como was expected to be very tricky, yet Inter dominated at San Siro, winning 4-0. Cristian Chivu’s men return temporarily to the table’s summit. While the scoreline was harsh on Fabregas’s side, previously boasting the league’s joint-best defense, it confirmed Nerazzurri supremacy.
Key figures Lautaro and Thuram shined. The Argentine opened the scoring via Luis Henrique’s assist, while the Frenchman netted the crucial second goal just as Como threatened, marking the return of the complete 'ThuLa' partnership.
Despite Como losing Morata to injury and creating chances through Douvikas, Inter displayed big-team cynicism. Thuram’s header broke Como’s momentum. Subsequently, Hakan Calhanoglu added a stunning third goal through relentless high pressing, and substitute Carlos Augusto sealed the rout with a late strike. This dominant performance silenced anyone who preferred Fabregas last summer, as Chivu’s ruthless Inter secured a massive victory, effectively combining their defensive solidity with devastating attacking efficiency.
