**Rome, Nov 24 (AP)** – Inter Milan surged to the top of the Serie A table with a resounding 5-0 victory over Hellas Verona on Saturday. Marcus Thuram bagged a brace, leading a dominant first-half performance that saw five unanswered goals. The win puts Inter two points ahead of Napoli, who have a chance to reclaim the lead when they face Roma on Sunday. Atalanta also have the opportunity to match Inter’s points total if they defeat Parma later today.
Despite the absence of injured star striker Lautaro Martinez, Inter’s attack was relentless. Joaquin Correa opened the scoring before Thuram’s double, with further goals from Stefan de Vrij and Yann Aurel Bisseck securing the emphatic win. Correa came close to adding a sixth in the second half, but his shot struck the post.
Elsewhere, AC Milan and Juventus played out a goalless draw in a low-key encounter at the San Siro. Inter’s only defeat this season remains their September derby loss to Milan.
