Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappé, and Lautaro Martinez. These are the three players who, in each of the last two seasons, have been involved in at least 25 goals – including goals and assists – in the league. The Argentine joined this trio, shining in the recovery of the 21st round of Serie A, in that Inter-Atalanta match which on paper was supposed to be one of the toughest challenges for the Nerazzurri in the way for the second star, but instead became a midweek exhibition match. Of course, such dominance cannot be limited to just one player, but his performance was yet another gem in a season full of satisfactions. And using these words for a player who also missed a penalty in the same match is an unequivocal sign of the greatness of the protagonist.
LAUTARO ON FIRE
Twenty-three goals in 24 matches, with two horns sharpened like never before: “El Toro,” since joining Inter, has consistently improved his tally in the league, forcefully entering all the top 10 goal scorers in the club’s history. And never does the captain feel satisfied after reaching a new milestone: he celebrated his 100th goal in Serie A against Lecce, immediately scored the 101st in the same match, and reached 102 three days later, almost reaching numbers 103 and 104 as well. When he scored, he enjoyed the entire stadium chanting his name with open arms; when he left, halfway between refreshing turnover and the deserved tribute from San Siro, he stood still at the edge of the field for long seconds, sincerely thanking an audience with whom he now shares a visceral, symbiotic, and exhilarating bond.
