Nicolo Barella 6/10

Nicolo Barella didn’t have much of an impact in his first 39 minutes since his injury. However, that won’t matter much to Inter fans. They’ll just be glad to have their talented young midfielder back in time to try to push past Juventus in the second half of the season.

Stefano Sensi 6/10

I could probably just copy and paste what I wrote about Barella and swap in Stefano Sensi’s name

More from Serie A

and it would remain true. He also didn’t accomplish much during his time on the field, but Inter fans will just be glad to see him out there after making only 2 other appearances since his injury at the beginning of October. If nothing else, Inter’s subs showed that this squad is getting healthy at the right time.

Borja Valero Inc.

Borja Valero was only on the field for 7 minutes and just never had the chance to do anything to earn himself a grade.

Manager: Antonio Conte 9.5/10

Any time you end a 23 year winless streak, it’s a good day. Inter Milan finally managed to get a win in Napoli after years of suffering and it kept them level with Juventus on a day where nobody would have been shocked to see them drop points (even Vegas essentially had this as a pick ’em). Antonio Conte started the right lineup, got two important players minutes as substitutes after injury absences and closed this match out well after getting the lead. There is one thing Antonio Conte has done well with any club he has managed. That’s winning in the league. He showed why once again on Monday.
