Everything easy for Inter than on the day of the Scudetto celebration at the Meazza beats Torino with a score of 2-0. Downhill match in the second half for the Nerazzurri after ending the first half 0-0. Tameze’s expulsion allows Simone Inzaghi’s team to immediately find the lead with Calhanoglu good at making the most of a assist by Mkhitaryan and put the ball into the net with his left foot to make it 1-0. Then after a few minutes it’s still there Calhanoglu doubled the lead from the penalty spot for the final 2-0 which gets Inter’s celebration even further underway.
Zapata among the most dangerous in Turin in the first half.
Scoreless first half at Mezza
The show is more in the stands than on the pitch and this was clear from the opening whistle when the first chants started from the Nerazzurri corner for Simone Inzaghi who celebrated the Scudetto together with all the Nerazzurri supporters. On the pitch, however, it is total balance in the first 45 minutes in a San Siro that thought about everything except the final result that had already been achieved. However, those who wanted to take important chances to get 3 points in the European key were Torino who immediately responded dangerous with Zapatatwice close to scoring.
On the other hand they try instead Thuram and Lautarowhich are not scary Milinkovic-Savic. THEn particular the Frenchman was good at disorientating on one occasion Bellanova upon entering the area, minus the execution with the left foot which does not frame the goal. Inter then tries again with a right-footed shot Calhanoglu from distance, well-directed shot but deflected wide by Thuram. In fact the first half ends without major shocks and with result 0-0 which seems to be exactly the right one after what we saw on the pitch.

Calhanoglu’s brace in the second half closed the game
An immediate uphill restart for Torino who remain with ten men Tameze’s expulsion. The Granata midfielder was initially booked after the foul on Mkhitaryan on the edge of the area. The Inter players protest and ask for a red card for a last-man foul. And indeed it is on field review for Ferrieri Caputi which sends the player off, canceling the first yellow card. An expulsion that caused a lot of discussion due to the dynamics that determined this decision.
An episode that effectively paves the way for Inter to find it straight away the opening goal thanks to Calhanoglu. The Turk puts Mkhitaryan’s precise assist into the net with a precise left foot. A few minutes later Thuram ends up on the ground in the penalty area after a clear foul by Lovato. Calhanoglu appears again from the spot who, despite having offered the shot from eleven meters to Lautaro, gets the green light from the captain who leaves the penalty to the Nerazzurri playmaker who doubles his lead. From here the match is practically over and ends with the score 2-0
