Hero Lautaro Martinez and Inter Milan win Coppa Italia

The 2022 World Cup winning effect has helped Lautaro Martinez have one of the best seasons of his career. The Argentine star is Inter Milan's best scorer this season, closely following Napoli's "beast" Victor Osimhen in the Serie A scoring list.

Lautaro Martinez is the soul of Inter Milan's playing style

Last week, Lautaro Martinez scored the only goal in the second leg of the semi-final, helping Inter beat arch-rivals AC Milan on the way to the Champions League final. In the early hours of May 25, he played the hero role in Inter Milan's comeback in the Coppa Italia final against Fiorentina, who were aiming for their first title in more than 20 years.

As the reigning cup holders, Inter Milan made no secret of their intention to watch the clash with Fiorentina to review their squad one last time before the Champions League match in two weeks. This experience was truly priceless because after just three minutes of play, Inter Milan's net shook after a Fiorentina attack and the finisher was Nicolas Gonzalez.

Lautaro Martinez equalized 1-1

Chances were created continuously for Fiorentina when Inter Milan, as usual, started very slowly. Edin Dzeko missed the first dangerous situation in the 24th minute after a perfect assist from Lautaro Martinez. However, just 5 minutes later, Lautaro Martinez himself got down to receive a pass from Brozovic before defeating goalkeeper Terracciano, equalizing 1-1 for Inter Milan.

Fiorentina counterattacked fiercely but failed.

Fiorentina had no less than 5 scoring opportunities, but goalkeeper Handanovic played very well, blocking shots from Luka Jovic and Nicolas Gonzalez, while Biraghi shot the ball over the bar, and Jovic headed wide of the post.
