Football - Serie A - Inter Milan v Crotone - San Siro, Milan, Italy - January 3, 2021. Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez celebrates scoring their second goal with teammates. [REUTERS/Jennifer Lorenzini]Lautaro Martinez's first hat-trick for Inter Milan helped his side crush Crotone 6-2, earning their eighth successive Serie A win on Sunday and sending Antonio Conte's team top of the standings above AC Milan. However, Romelu Lukaku sent strike partner Martinez through to level eight minutes later, before an own goal from Luca Marrone put Inter in front. Yet, even on this run of successive wins, Inter have often made life difficult for themselves, and sure enough a clumsy tackle from Arturo Vidal saw Inter again pegged back.
