Inter Milan proved their championship mettle with a stunning performance against Lecce, thrashing their opponents 4-0 in a thrilling Serie A encounter. Coach Simone Inzaghi made a bold move by placing Davide Frattesi into the midfield, a decision that paid off handsomely. The match, held on January 26, 2025, saw Frattesi link up beautifully with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram, setting the tone for a game that would keep fans on the edge of their seats.

Right from the kick-off, it was evident that Inter was not there to make friends. Marcus Thuram's dazzling footwork in the box gave the Lecce defense nightmares, creating a supportive platform for Frattesi. The 22-year-old didn't disappoint; within the first six minutes, he volleyed home the opening goal, leaving supporters chanting with delight. As the clock ticked on, the team demonstrated their dominance, effectively showcasing why they are the defending champions desperately trying to stay in touch with league leaders Napoli.

The goal fest didn’t stop with Frattesi. Further into the game, Inter showcased a blend of skill and finesse as they continued to rattle Lecce's backline. Following Frattesi's opener, the scoring continued with other stellar plays leading to a convincing 4-0 victory. Lecce struggled to get a foothold in the game, with Inter's attacking prowess appearing relentless and almost surgical in execution. Fans across the globe did not shy away from tuning in, especially those in Nigeria, who watched the game unfold live online.

Despite their dominance, the match was not without its surprises. Lecce's interim setup included ex-Napoli star Piotr Zielinski stepping in for Kristjan Asllani, a change that arguably did not yield the desired results.
