Inter Milan secured their first win of the season on Saturday as Romelu Lukaku scored two goals in a 2-1 victory over Sampdoria in Serie A.
The Belgian striker, who has been struggling with injury issues this season, was instrumental in helping his team to break through and score the opening goal after just six minutes. He then doubled his tally in the second half when he pounced on a loose ball from a corner kick to put Inter ahead.
Sampdoria, on the other hand, were unable to capitalize on their chances,Serie A Stadium failing to create any real scoring opportunities throughout the match. The result means that Inter have now won their last four matches in Serie A, including three away games, and they are now sitting at the top of the table.
Lukaku's performance was particularly impressive given his current fitness status. Despite being sidelined for several weeks due to an ankle injury, he managed to return to action for Inter and deliver a crucial assist in the second half.
Inter Milan will be looking to continue their strong form and build upon their recent success. They face another tough challenge against Juventus next weekend, but Lukaku's performance suggests that they are well-equipped to handle the pressure.
