Forward scores twice in 2-0 win at Pisa
Villarreal edge out Real Sociedad in thriller
Inter’s Lautaro Martínez scored a second-half double to earn his side a 2-0 at Pisa that kept the visitors very much involved in the Serie A title race despite a less than convincing performance.
Cristian Chivu’s Inter are third in the standings on 27 points, level with second-placed Roma, who host Napoli later on Sunday, and one behind the leaders, Milan, who beat Lazio 1-0 on Saturday. Pisa are third bottom with 10 points.
Inter arrived in Tuscany looking to get back on track after their derby defeat by Milan last weekend was followed by a Champions League loss at Atlético Madrid, but they were made to battle all the way by promoted Pisa. The hosts created plenty of chances but a clinical Inter scored the opening goal in the 69th minute when the Argentinian Martínez smacked a first-time shot into the roof of the net and the forward tapped in from close range seven minutes from time.
