Como
Como played with attacking intent, controlling 60% of possession and registering 24 shots, eight of which tested Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer. Their 4-2-3-1 formation allowed for fluid movement in midfield, with Martin Baturina and Nico Paz orchestrating play and creating numerous opportunities. Defensively, however, Como struggled to contain Inter’s swift counterattacks and conceded four times despite their territorial dominance. The hosts showed great spirit, especially with a late goal in the 89th minute that brought them within touching distance of a draw. Ultimately, their inability to convert chances and defensive lapses at crucial moments cost them dearly in this high-scoring contest.
Key Players
Strengths
Weaknesses
Inter
Inter weathered early pressure from Como and made the most of their limited opportunities, scoring four goals from just seven shots. Their 3-5-2 setup provided defensive solidity in numbers, but also allowed for rapid transitions that caught Como off guard. The midfield trio, led by Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Nicolò Barella, was instrumental in launching attacks and disrupting Como’s rhythm. Despite conceding three times and collecting seven yellow cards in a feisty encounter, Inter’s clinical edge and game management in the closing stages were decisive. Their ability to strike quickly after halftime shifted the momentum and ultimately secured all three points.

Tactical Analysis
Como’s 4-2-3-1 formation allowed them to dominate possession and dictate the tempo, with their attacking midfielders finding space between the lines. However, their advanced full-backs left them vulnerable to Inter’s rapid transitions, especially with Thuram and Esposito exploiting the channels. Inter’s 3-5-2 provided defensive coverage and flexibility, allowing wing-backs Dumfries and Dimarco to support attacks while maintaining a solid back three. Substitutions and tactical tweaks in the second half saw Como push more men forward, but this only increased their exposure at the back. Inter’s discipline in shape and ability to break quickly proved the difference, while their aggressive pressing led to a flurry of bookings but also disrupted Como’s build-up play.
Turning Point
Inter’s double strike between the 49th and 59th minutes, overturning Como’s lead and seizing control of the match.
Man of the Match
Marcus Thuram
His relentless movement, goal, and involvement in key attacking phases turned the tide for Inter.
