Inter beat Pisa 2-0 as Lautaro Martinez answers critics

Inter Milan earned a 2-0 victory at Pisa, boosting their Serie A campaign while Lautaro Martinez rediscovered his scoring touch and leadership on the pitch.

Head coach Cristian Kivo stressed that he never doubted his captain, even during rough patches, and praised the team for staying patient, disciplined, and focused on delivering a strong campaign.

Standings, quotes and the bigger picture

The win lifted Inter to 27 points, placing them third in the standings, just one point behind leaders Milan and level with Roma in second on the table. Pisa, meanwhile, had been unbeaten at home for six matches before this result.

Kivo reflected after the match on Dazn Italia: “Our reaction was solid; we knew this would be a tough game. Pisa hadn’t been beaten at home since mid-September. We stayed patient and organized, and the team showed the will to push for a strong season.”

“We understood the dangers we would face, and we kept calm. There were moments where we could have played better, but we know what we have achieved and the work still ahead. This team proves every day that it’s eager to challenge itself,” he added.

Amidst external criticism of Lautaro Martinez, the Argentine forward responded by scoring twice and signaling a strong rebuttal to detractors.

Regarding his captain, Kivo noted: “We understand the importance of all our players, especially our leader. Some outsiders may doubt him, but we never did because we recognize his commitment and what he adds to the squad.”

He also warned against overreacting to outside noise: “If you listen too much to what’s said abroad, you can lose your balance. We focus on what we do on the pitch and trust this squad.”

“I know what I am and what I can contribute to this team. I give my best for a club with a long history like Inter,” the coach concluded, reaffirming his responsibility to the club, the fans, and the youngsters who represent Inter with pride.

As Martinez’s goals continue to boost Inter’s spirits, the coach reiterated his belief in the squad’s collective potential and the importance of keeping faith in the process as they chase a strong season.

Punchline 1: If patience were a weapon, Koivo would be the world’s calmest sniper—never misses a shot at the target called ‘team spirit.’

Punchline 2: Lautaro’s goals are so on point that even the calendar says, ‘Inter time’ every time the ball hits the back of the net.
