Inter's strikers, Mehdi Taremi and Marko Arnautovic, showcased their skills in a commanding 4-0 win over Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League. Simone Inzaghi praised their performance, highlighting Taremi's penalty and two assists, including one for Arnautovic. Their pressing game forced errors from the visitors, allowing Inter to dominate.

Inzaghi expressed satisfaction with the duo's efforts, stating they deserved their chance to start over Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram. "The lads were good, they played a serious game against a team that came to play a purely defensive game," Inzaghi told Sky Sport. He acknowledged some areas for improvement but was pleased overall.

Inter have maintained an impressive unbeaten run at San Siro in the Champions League. They have not lost in their last ten home games (W8 D2), keeping clean sheets in eight of those matches. This streak is their longest since the competition's format began in 1992-93.

Lautaro Martinez contributed significantly by scoring his 13th Champions League goal for Inter. Only Adriano has scored more for the club in this tournament with 14 goals. Martinez's performance continues to solidify his status as a key player for Inter.

After a goalless draw against Manchester City in their opening match, Inter aimed to build momentum with this victory. Inzaghi emphasized the importance of following up on their performance against Manchester City. "We wanted this victory to follow up the performance in Manchester," he said.

Taremi and Arnautovic have been crucial additions to Inter's squad this season. Inzaghi noted their dedication and hard work during training sessions. "They are giving it their all," he said, adding that both players were brought in because of their potential impact on the team.

The victory over Red Star Belgrade marks a positive step forward for Inter as they aim to improve upon a challenging start to their Serie A campaign. Inzaghi remains optimistic about maintaining this trajectory throughout the season.
