Boni and Diouf scored for the Nerazzurri, while Kulenovic netted for the visitors. Two youth players from Inter’s academy — Matteo Cocchi and Issiaka Kamate — started on the flanks. For 21-year-old Kamate, it was his debut with the senior team, and he provided an assist for Boni’s goal.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan also had a strong showing, starting the match and playing 56 minutes. The 37-year-old Armenian was dominant in midfield and left the field with Inter leading 2–0. After his substitution, Inter immediately began to struggle and conceded a goal, but managed to hold onto the lead.
