Inter Milan turned a two-goal deficit into a 3-2 victory over Napoli at San Siro, with Lautaro Martínez delivering the decisive goal in stoppage time and setting a personal club milestone.

Napoli looked in control after Matteo Politano and Rasmus Højlund scored twice within five minutes at the start of the second half. Inter gradually fought back, and Martínez began the comeback before Marcus Thuram headed in the equalizer with eight minutes remaining.

The final drama came in added time. Napoli’s defense failed to deal with a corner, allowing Manuel Akanji to redirect a loose ball at the far post. Martínez then made sure it crossed the line for the winner, prompting a huge celebration at San Siro. He and Thuram climbed over the barrier to celebrate with Inter supporters.

Marcus joined me today. He always says I’m crazy for climbing up there because he never wants to do it, but this time he came with me.

· Lautaro MartínezMartínez described celebrating the stoppage-time winner with Marcus Thuram.

“Marcus joined me today. He always says I’m crazy for climbing up there because he never wants to do it, but this time he came with me,” Martínez said.

The goal was Martínez’s 134th for Inter, taking him past Stefano Nyers and into third place among the club’s leading scorers. Inter have now won three Serie A matches in 2026 after falling two goals behind, the most such victories among teams from Europe’s five leading leagues. Coach Christian Chivu called the match highly entertaining and praised Napoli despite the result. Napoli, runner-up to Inter last season, have lost their last two matches, including a defeat by Como.

It was a great match to watch, very entertaining and a fantastic advertisement for Italian football.
