Outstanding performance
Torino•AttackerInter Milan advanced to the next round of the Coppa Italia with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Torino, though they made it more difficult than necessary. The Nerazzurri dominated the first half and early second half, taking a commanding 2-0 lead through Ange-Yoan Bonny's close-range header and Andy Diouf's clinical finish from the penalty area. However, Simone Inzaghi's triple substitution at the 56-minute mark seemed to disrupt Inter's rhythm, and Torino immediately capitalized with Sandro Kulenovic's powerful header to halve the deficit. The visitors pressed hard for an equalizer in the final stages, creating a tense finish, but Inter's experience in cup competitions saw them through. This result maintains Inter's excellent cup form while highlighting their squad depth, though Inzaghi will be concerned about how his team nearly threw away a comfortable lead.
