Lautaro Martinez guided Inter to an incredible and last-ditch 4-3 win over Fiorentina in Serie A.
In a game that was full of refereeing talking points, great goals and late drama, Martinez set up Nicolo Barella in the second minute to hand Inter a lead. He got on the scoresheet himself some minutes later to double the advantage. Arthur Cabral pulled one back from the spot and Fiorentina made it 2-2 through Jonathan Ikone. Martinez handed the lead to Inter once again later, only to see Luka Jovic equalise in the 90th minute.
But in the 95th minute, a deflected clearance met Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who grabbed a last-ditch winner for the Nerazzurri to bring them into the conversation for a top four finish once again.
