​Inter Milan staged a dramatic comeback, overcoming a two-goal deficit to defeat Monza 3-2

Inter Milan staged a dramatic comeback, overcoming a two-goal deficit to defeat Monza 3-2 at San Siro, extending their Serie A lead to four points. The victory was a hard-fought battle against the league's bottom club, who initially shocked the home crowd.

Monza took a surprising 2-0 lead through goals from Samuele Birindelli and Keita Balde, silencing the San Siro faithful. However, Inter rallied just before halftime, with Marko Arnautovic converting a crucial goal from Denzel Dumfries' assist.

The second half saw Inter dominate, with Hakan Calhanoglu leveling the score with a powerful strike. The decisive moment arrived when Giorgos Kyriakopoulos inadvertently directed the ball into his own net under pressure from Lautaro Martinez, confirmed by goal-line technology.

Despite near misses from Marcus Thuram and Calhanoglu, Inter secured the victory. This comeback, mirroring AC Milan's earlier 3-2 victory after trailing by two goals, marked a historic day in Serie A, as both Milan clubs achieved such feats on the same matchday.

Martinez, though not scoring, played a pivotal role, contributing to the decisive own goal. His 150th Serie A win with Inter solidifies his status as a key player, holding the record for most wins in the division since his debut in 2018-19.
