Meanwhile, Edin Dzeko picked up an assist and scored a goal for Inter as well. He was brought in to replace star striker Romelu Lukaku and the Bosnian delivered.
Simone Inzaghi’ tactics
The newly appointed Inter Milan manager could not have asked for a better performance from his players.
The Inter Milan squad did extremely well to adapt to his new tactics and perform at a high level against Genoa today.
Inzaghi will be optimistic about winning silverware, given the opening day display from his team.
Exceeding expectations
Inter Milan had a chaotic summer transfer window of the pitch and they had to cash in on key players like Achraf Hakimi and Romelu Lukaku.
