Inter Milan strikers, Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez, on Monday night, equalled the club’s former stars, Obafemi Martins and Adriano’s goals record at the Nerazzurri following their Europa League 5-0 victory against Shakhtar Donetsk.
Coach Antonio Conte’s men were unstoppable in both halves of the meeting after edging closer to their first title since 2010.
A brace each from Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukau either side of Danilo D’Ambrosio’s strike put the Nerazzurri into their first European final since 2010.
Argentine star, Lautaro who is wanted by Barcelona Martinez opened scoring for the Serie A giants in the 19th minute of the encounter – the only goal that kept them ahead all through the opening half.
D’Ambrosio doubled their lead in the 64th minute and his goal seems to open more ways for his teammates to exploit.
Martinez completed his brace in the 74th minute and two quick goals from Lukaku in the 78th and 84th minutes of the meeting sealed the win for Inter.
Lukaku’s brace against Shakhtar Donetsk means the former Manchester United and Chelsea star has now become the first ever player to score in 10 Europa League games in a row.
Lukaku and Martinez maintained their goals scoring dominance after becoming the first Inter pair to score over 20 goals each in a single season since Adriano and Obafemi Martins in 2004-05 campaign.
Lukaku and Martinez will now hope to lead Inter Milan to victory when they face Sevilla in the Europa League final on Friday.
