Aperçu Zumunta

Inter coach Cristian Chivu has delivered a scathing assessment of his side's performance despite securing a historic victory away at Venezia. The Nerazzurri have officially recorded their best-ever start to a Serie A campaign in the three-points-per-win era, yet the manager remained far from satisfied with the display.

Inter Milan maintained their pursuit of the Serie A summit with a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Venezia at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo. Despite a dominant statistical profile, the Nerazzurri relied on two late own goals to secure all three points in a tactically intriguing encounter.

The former Real Salt Lake teenager got his first taste of Prem action, while Musah impressed in Milan’s midfield and Cardoso’s lack of minutes at Atletico Madrid raised fresh questions.

Serie A newcomers Venezia have reached a verbal agreement with Barcelona to sign promising attacking talent Toni Fernandez for a fee of €4 million. The 18-year-old academy graduate had entered the final year of his contract in Catalonia, prompting sporting director Deco to sanction a departure that includes crucial future buy-back protections.
