Inter Milan had an easy time of it on Friday, beating Parma 3-1 in Serie A. Federico Dimarco, Nicolò Barella and Marcus Thuram all scored for Inter.

The win means Inter are still in the running for the title, just one point behind leaders Napoli with 32 points. Parma are currently in 12th place with 15 points.

This was Inter's first game since their Serie A match against Fiorentina was abandoned last Sunday. Midfielder Edoardo Bove collapsed on the pitch and had to be taken to hospital.

On Friday, Dimarco showed some great skill with a neat heel flick to get the ball past a defender and into the box. He then fired in from a tight angle to break the deadlock five minutes before half-time.

The home team scored again in the 53rd minute. Barella got on the end of a perfect pass from midfield and had plenty of time to slot the ball into the net.

Parma goalkeeper Zion Suzuki made a quick reflex save to deny Martínez a goal with a header, preventing his side from falling further behind.

An unmarked Thuram wrapped up the win for Inter in the 66th minute, volleying a flicked-on corner into the net for their third goal against the team from his hometown.

Parma managed to pull one back in the 81st minute when Inter defender Matteo Darmian tried to intercept a through ball but ended up sending it into his own net.

Inter and Martinez were awarded another penalty in the last few minutes, but the decision was changed after a VAR review.

Despite the loss, Parma coach Fabio Pecchia was still positive about his team's performance.

"The boys' performance was positive, we knew who we were facing. The attitude was positive, with the desire to do what we usually do," he said.

"In the situations of the first half we could have been a little luckier, but this match is a new step for my boys."

Inter will next travel to face Bayer Leverkusen for a Champions League clash on Tuesday.
