Inter Milan, Thuram decisive with brace in Torino opener

Marcus Thuram shines at San Siro with two goals as Inter Milan start the new Serie A season in style against Torino

Marcus Thuram made a powerful start to the 2025/26 season, scoring with his right foot and then with a header to seal a brace in the Serie A opener against Torino.

The Nerazzurri celebrated their return to San Siro and their fans with a performance full of applause. 

Inter Milan vs Torino wasn’t just about five incredible goals and the first three points of the season: it was about Cristian Chivu’s team showing determination, style, and grit from the very first match.

Thuram MVP: “Inter Milan will prove ourselves match by match”

Among the stars of the night was Marcus Thuram, who netted twice—once with his right foot and once with a header—for his personal brace, following up on the hat-trick he scored last season against the Granata. For his display, the French striker was chosen as the MVP of the match.

Marcus Thuram’s words:
"Inter Milan is not just about the ‘ThuLa’, we have strikers who can all do their job. The important thing is that Inter Milan wins. The header goal and the celebration towards my father and my brother? 

Both always tease me about my heading ability. I missed one earlier in the match, and when I scored, I immediately thought of them. 

What happened last year is behind us, we’ve learned from it, and now we want to give the best of Inter Milan, proving it game after game."
