Underlying Stats Underpin Inter Milan & Argentina Superstar’s Impressive Goalscoring Form | OneFootball

The statistics show that Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez has gotten himself on a hot finishing streak.

As the Gazzetta dello Sport show, via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri as a whole have in fact been enjoying a strong run of form at being clinical in front of goal.

In recent weeks, Martinez has gone back to being a real attacking talisman for Inter.

Earlier on in the season, the Argentine was far from his best in front of goal.

Martinez was initially dealing with a lack of proper fitness due to his shortened preseason. Then, even after he started looking physically sharper, he missed a number of good chances

Since the end of December, however, Martinez has been much more clinical in terms of taking his chances.

The Inter captain scored a volley from an improbable angle against Sparta Prague on Wednesday. That showed just what an impressive finisher he is capable of being.

However, Lautaro Martinez did miss a couple of better opportunities in Prague.
