ROME (Reuters) – Defending champions Inter Milan stormed to a 6-0 win at Lazio in Serie A on Monday with quick-fire goals either side of halftime.
Hakan Calhanoglu put Inter in front from the spot in the 41st minute, after a penalty award for handball, and Federico Dimarco doubled the lead before the break with a volley.
Nicolo Barella slotted home to make it 3-0 six minutes after the restart before Denzel Dumfries netted two minutes later and Carlos Augusto and Marcus Thuram completed the rout late on.
Inter remain third in the standings with 34 points from 15 matches and trail leaders Atalanta by three points with a game in hand. Lazio are fifth on 31 from 16 matches.
