Inter Milan, under coach Chivu, delivered an emphatic 5-0 victory against Sassuolo at the Mapei Stadium, demonstrating their current dominance in Serie A. The match started strongly for Inter, as they secured an early lead with a goal from Bisseck, quickly followed by a second goal from Marcus Thuram, assisted by the talented Dimarco. Despite Sassuolo's efforts and a disallowed goal that could have narrowed the gap, Inter maintained control of the match.

As the second half progressed, Sassuolo attempted to stage a comeback but their defensive lapses allowed Inter to extend their lead. Lautaro Martinez capitalized on these mistakes, scoring another goal before Akanji headed the ball into the net from a Dimarco corner. The game was effectively sealed with the expulsion of Matic, which left Sassuolo with an uphill battle; however, Luis Henrique's late strike added to the tally, culminating in a resounding five-goal victory for Inter.

With this win, Inter strengthens its grip on the league, now eight points clear of rivals AC Milan, who are yet to play their game against Como. This match not only reinforces Inter's title ambitions but also highlights the challenges Sassuolo faces in maintaining competitive performances this season.
