Inter concluded their first league match with a clear 3-0 victory against Parma, marking the first clean sheet at the San Siro this season and the second overall in the club's history. The match, played on 10 October 2024, was dominated by Inter from the start, with coach Cristian Chivu fielding numerous starters and introducing many second rows. After twenty minutes the game was already definitely over, with Marcus Thuram scoring three goals, including one not considered a reserve. In the second half the match almost became a "make-believe match", with few offensive attempts and few counter-attacking opportunities for Parma.
The result was fundamental for Inter, who resumed a trend of three goals per game and immediately got rid of the dust accumulated during the twenty days of break. The club didn't need to beat a "submissive" opponent like Parma, but the victory serves to send a message of strength in the league. With the current score, Inter are still at the top of the table, with the scudetto on their chest. Coach Chivu declared in the press conference that the main objective is to consolidate the team and continue to play for themselves, without being distracted by external expectations.
Inter's next match is the match against Como and Roma, scheduled for tomorrow at 12.30. The match is seen by many as an opportunity to showcase Inter's strength, but Chivu expressed calm about the match, underlining that the club is ready to win regardless of the result. The coach also mentioned the possibility of "snoozing" the second half on the sofa at home, but reiterated that the objective is always to achieve victory.
In summary, the victory against Parma confirmed Inter's defensive solidity and its ability to close games decisively. With the table still at the top, the club is preparing for a new challenge, with the aim of maintaining its form and continuing to aim for the title. The final result of the Como-Roma match remains uncertain, but Inter is ready to play for victory, as Chivu underlined.
