Dimarco was still level with the San Siro centre circle, on the left side of the field, when he spotted Frosinone goalkeeper — and lifelong Inter fan — Stefano Turati off his line and lobbed him with an outrageous strike.

Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer put his hands on his head in disbelief, while coach Simone Inzaghi turned round and beamed broadly at his bench.

Hakan Calhanoglu doubled Inter’s lead from the spot shortly after the start of the second half after Marcus Thuram had been tripped by Ilario Monterisi.

Inter’s 2-0 win moved them two points above Juventus, who beat Cagliari 2-1 on Saturday.

The two teams meet in Turin after the international break.
