Third day of the championship and first big matches in Serie A: in the Friday evening game, Milan conquered the Olimpico with goals from Giroud and Leao. In Rome, debut for Lukaku. First defeat for Garcia's Napoli, who lost 2-1 at home against the Lazio of a monumental Luis Alberto. Inter demolished Fiorentina with 4 goals (two from top scorer Lautaro, first goal in Serie A from Thuram) and reached the Rossoneri cousins at the top.
