Inter win as Lukaku double inspires Torino comeback

Romelu Lukaku admitted that his flawed Inter Milan side still can’t be considered a great team after his double helped to complete a thrilling second half comeback from two goals down to beat Torino 4-2 on Sunday, ending a four-match winless run in all competitions.

Simone Zaza struck late in the first half to give the visitors a deserved lead, and Cristian Ansaldi doubled their advantage from the penalty spot after the break.

A hitherto limp Inter performance was sparked to life by the goal and Alexis Sanchez and Lukaku both scored within five minutes of the spot kick to draw the hosts level.

The Belgian striker then netted a penalty of his own with six minutes remaining, before setting up substitute Lautaro Martinez for a last-minute fourth.

But the former Manchester United man was frustrated that Inter required a strong finale to get a result after a sluggish start.

“Honestly, we aren’t a great team yet because we get ourselves into trouble like this,” Lukaku told DAZN.

“For the first hour we played badly and were in trouble, we didn’t have enough fight and desire.

“Then we woke up and we won, which is the most important thing.”
