What happened. Inter beat Cagliari 1-0 thanks to a Hakan Calhanoglu strike, but Chivu admitted they risked trouble by not converting more chances.

• Inter had 31 shots, 7 on target, xG 3.9.
• Curtis Jones made his debut off the bench.
• Marcus Thuram played 30 minutes after World Cup return.

“These are your classic games where if you don’t kill them off, you can run into trouble.”

— Cristian Chivu

Inter maintain perfect start, but fitness concerns remain as players return from World Cup.
