Inter went behind from the spot before mounting a spirited comeback against Atalanta, running out 3-2 winners despite a lack fightback.
Atalanta
Musso: Tough afternoon for the keeper who was outfooted by his teammates on two of the Inter goals, but otherwise solid. 5.0/10
Palomino: Some great defending against Dzeko on a number of occasions in the early stages but he was unfortunate on the Inter third goal that was deflected in. Made amends with a great stooped header to get La Dea back into the game. 6.5/10
Demiral: Typically rugged and hard working defensive display in the first half. 5.5/10
Scalvini: Decent ’45 minutes for the youngster who had a good run out playing in midfield. 5.5/10
Hateboer: An ok enough performance but there were times he was up against with Dimarco. 5.5/10
Pasalic: Some nice touches but no telling attacking contribution. 5.5/10
Koopmeiners: Good chance from a tight angle, forcing the save from Onana. 6.0/10
Maehle: Never really got into the game in the first ’45 before scoring an unfortunate own-goal. 5.0/10
Ederson: A hard-working display, playing in the heart of midfield and get stuck into the tackles. 6.5/10
Lookman: Took his penalty really well, giving Onana no chance, and put in a good shift coming in from the left flank. 6.5/10
Zapata: Worked well on the break and won the opening penalty with a nice run into the box. 6.0/10
Substitutions:
Malinovskyi: Took a while to get into the game, one good effort straight at Onana from distance. 5.0/10
Okoli: 5.0/10
Hojlund: 5.0/10
Boga: N/A
Inter
Onana: Decent reaction stop on Koopmeiners before making another great stop form the resulting set-piece. 6.5/10
Skriniar: Decent showing from the captain who put in a solid shift against Lookman. 6.0/10
De Vrij: Very poor challenge to give away the penalty, looked a yard off the pace. 5.5/10
Bastoni: Quiet and understated, very good at the back. 6.0/10
Dumfries: A little anonymous in the opening exchanges but came into the game more in the second half. 5.5/10
Barella: A very quiet game considering his recent run of form and importance to the Inter midfield. 5.5/10
Calhanoglu: Nicely whipped in cross in the build up to the equaliser. The best of the Inter midfield today. 6.7/10
Mkhitaryan: Anonymous for large periods of the game. 5.5/10
Dimarco: Had a half-chance that was right at Musso. Wicked cross to set up Dzeko and put Inter ahead. 6.5/10
Martinez: Dropped deep to get on the ball and struggled to make an impact for a large spell before popping up with a nice headed assist for Dzeko. Played a part in third goal and could have scored a fourth when left unmarked. 6.5/10
Dzeko: Frustrating first 30 minutes as he tussled with the Atalanta defence but found himself in the right spot to capitalise on Martinez’ headed assist. Played a big role in the second goal which was deflected off him. 7.5/10
Substitutions:
Bellanova: 5.0/10
Acerbi: 5.0/10
Gosens: N/A
Brovovic: N/A
Correa: N/A
