Inter staged another comeback after going 2-0 down vs Udinese (5-3)
According to L'Équipe, Inter overturned a 2-0 start to win 5-3, with a standout double contribution from Marcus Thuram after an early scare.
Inter kept delivering late reversals. As L'Équipe reports, the Inter side came back from two goals down within sixteen minutes to beat Udinese 5-3 on Monday.
Turnaround before half-time
The upset began early: James Abankwah headed Udinese in front in the 9th minute, then Jurgen Ekkelenkamp made it 2-0 in the 16th after a pass from Keinan Davis, with an unlucky moment from Andy Diouf. In the 21st, Aleksandar Kolarov—Cristian Chivu’s assistant—was sent off.
Despite the setback, Inter stayed composed and levelled before the break. Carlos Augusto pulled one back in the 26th, and Nicolò Barella made it 2-2 in the 35th, described by L'Équipe as a goal that also came with some good fortune.
Thuram’s impact seals it
The second half swung decisively Inter’s way. Marcus Thuram scored in the 57th (and also played a decisive role with an earlier assist for Barella, as the paper notes), followed by Pio Esposito in the 67th and Ange-Yoan Bonny in the 79th. L'Équipe points out that Lautaro Martínez, Serie A’s top scorer last season, remained on the bench.
Udinese reduced the gap via Idrissa Gueye in the 90th, but it wasn’t enough. L'Équipe highlights that this was Inter’s fourth win in four league matches, bringing them level on top with AS Roma—separated only by goal difference.
