Tresoldi Hat Trick Sends Club Brugge Past Inter 4-3

Club Brugge defeated Inter 4-3 at San Siro in the Champions League after Nicolò Tresoldi scored a hat trick to lead the Belgian side to a memorable victory. The 22-year-old Italian-born Germany Under-21 forward scored three times, exposing Inter's defensive weaknesses and leaving the Italian club without a point after two matches. According to The Guardian, Tresoldi opened the scoring from the penalty spot shortly before the half-hour mark after Hakan Calhanoglu fouled Carlos Forbs.

He added his second shortly after the hour when Inter goalkeeper Josep Martínez made a costly error, then completed his treble with approximately 15 minutes remaining. Inter captain Lautaro Martínez scored twice to keep the home side in contention, while Romeo Vermant added Club Brugge's fourth goal in the 87th minute. Ange-Yoan Bonny scored in the third minute of stoppage time, but Inter could not complete their comeback.

Martínez had reduced the deficit before halftime after a move initiated by Marcus Thuram, who combined with Federico Dimarco before the latter supplied a back-heel assist. The Argentine forward then made it 3-2 in the 81st minute, briefly raising hopes of an Inter recovery.

Vermant's late strike restored Club Brugge's two-goal advantage and proved decisive. Bonny's stoppage-time finish narrowed the margin again, but the Belgian visitors held on for the win. Inter had already lost their opening match 2-1 to Real Madrid at the Bernabéu. The defeat against Club Brugge leaves them under pressure ahead of next week's home fixture against Shakhtar Donetsk.

Club Brugge also entered the match following a defeat, having lost at home to Aston Villa in their opening Champions League fixture. The Belgian club will next host Lens of France. Elsewhere, Bayern Munich drew 3-3 away to Norwegian champions Viking after conceding a late equalizer from Herman Haugen. Bayern had fallen 2-0 behind at halftime following goals from Gianni Stensness and Peter Christiansen, before Harry Kane scored twice and assisted another goal to put the German side ahead 3-2.

Michael Olise was sent off after receiving two yellow cards within a minute, allowing Viking to capitalize on their numerical advantage. Haugen scored in the final minute to secure a draw, while Olise's dismissal means he will miss Bayern's match against Arsenal next week in Munich. Kane scored in his ninth consecutive Champions League match, equaling a club record set by Robert Lewandowski.

He moved within two matches of the competition record of 11 consecutive scoring appearances held by Cristiano Ronaldo. Barcelona recovered from a difficult first half to beat Galatasaray 4-1 at Istanbul's Ali Sami Yen stadium. The Turkish hosts took the lead after 27 minutes when Aleksey Batrakov's shot deflected off João Cancelo and into the net following a counterattack involving Rafael Leão.

Barcelona responded through Cancelo before halftime and took the lead in the 50th minute when Fermín López headed in a cross from Lamine Yamal. Three minutes later, Yamal created another opportunity for Anthony Gordon, who converted to extend Barcelona's advantage. Karim Adeyemi added a fourth after 65 minutes following a move involving Gabriel Jesus.

Villarreal beat Napoli 3-1 through goals from Georges Mikautadze, Santiago Mouriño and Tani Oluwaseyi. RB Leipzig defeated PSV Eindhoven 1-0 after Brajan Gruda scored in the 75th minute, following Maarten Vandevoordt's save from Ivan Perisic's early penalty. Azerbaijani club Sabah recorded their first win in the Champions League league phase with a 2-0 victory over Slavia Prague in Baku.

Second-half goals from Kaheem Parris and Joy-Lance Mickels secured the result for the club, which was founded nine years ago. Sporting Lisbon also earned a 2-0 away victory against Lens, with Luis Suárez and Issa Doumbia scoring for the Portuguese side.
