Sends in six crosses in Shakhtar Donetsk match
Dimarco created one scoring chance and registered one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 1-0 victory versus FC Shakhtar Donetsk.
Analysis: Dimarco led his team in deliveries like he often does, but was less precise and impactful than usual, failing to uncork an accurate cross for the first time in the campaign. He has notched at least four crosses and one corner in every fixture, totaling 61 (23 accurate) and 24, respectively. Additionally, this was his fourth straight outing with at least one shot, for a total of nine (two on target), and one key pass (12 total).
Steady production versus Bologna
Dimarco recorded one shot (zero on goal), eight crosses (two accurate) and three corners and created four scoring chances in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Bologna.
Analysis: Dimarco was lively as usual on the wing and paced his side in two offensive categories, but he lacked end product, while Carlos Augusto contributed to two goals off the bench. He has logged four or more crosses, racking up 55 (23 accurate), and at least one corner, totaling 23, in his eight seasonal appearances, providing two assists. Additionally, this marked his third game in a row with at least one shot, for a total of eight (two on target), and one key pass (11 total).
Picks up assist in UCL match
Dimarco assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), eight crosses (five accurate) and three corners in Tuesday's 4-3 loss versus Club Brugge.
Analysis: Dimarco recorded his second helper in the campaign by slipping the ball to Lautaro Martinez with a heel-flick in the box that didn't look entirely intentional. He paced his team in key passes and crosses, setting a new season high in the former. He has registered at least four crosses, amassing 47 (21 accurate) and one corner, piling up 20, in all his seven showings, adding 14 shots (four on target) and 21 chances created.
Productive in Parma contest
Dimarco had four shots (two on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and two corners and won one tackle in Saturday's 3-0 win against Parma.
Analysis: Dimarco looked healthier than before the break and put up strong numbers, leading his team in two offensive categories, but his goal contributions have been lacking compared to last season so far. He has recorded four or more crosses, amassing 39 (16 accurate), and at least one corner, totaling 17, in his six displays, assisting once and adding 11 shots (four on target) and 15 key passes over that span.
Returns in friendly
Dimarco (knee) got the start in Saturday's friendly versus Lumezzane.
Analysis: Dimarco couldn't play with Italy during the break due to a pre-existing knee problem, but he has recovered during the week off. He started despite not being 100 percent against Roma. He has registered at least four crosses in every match so far, totaling 32 (14 accurate), assisting once and adding seven shots (two on target), 14 key passes and 15 corners thus far.
Continues to nurse knee issue
Dimarco has withdrawn from international duties due to the lingering consequences of his recent knee sprain, Mediaset reported.
Analysis: Dimarco returned and bit the bullet in the last two fixtures after sitting one out, but he didn't look totally right and saw fewer minutes than usual. He'll take advantage of the stoppage to get completely healthy ahead of October 10's game versus Parma.
Uncorks four crosses against Udinese
Dimarco (knee) created two scoring chances and had four crosses (two accurate) and four corners in 20 minutes in Monday's 5-3 win over Udinese.
Analysis: Dimarco put up decent numbers considering his scarce playing time, maintaining most of his ongoing streaks on the offensive end. He has created multiple chances, totaling 14, and logged at least four crosses, amassing 27 (13 accurate), and two corners, piling up 14, in his first four displays. Instead, he didn't take a shot for the first time in the season.
Fit for Udinese game
Dimarco (knee) hasn't had setbacks and will be available Monday, Corriere dello Sport relayed.
Analysis: Dimarco is primed to return from a one-game absence but could begin on the bench instead of starting as usual to avoid risks. Carlos Augusto or Luis Henrique would get the nod in that event. He has registered at least five crosses, totaling 23 (11 accurate), and three corners, racking up 10 in every appearance so far, assisting once and adding seven shots (two on target) and 12 chances created.
Out for Real Madrid clash
Dimarco (knee) trained regularly Monday, but won't play in the upcoming UEFA Champions League bout as a precaution, Gianluca Di Marzio reported.
Analysis: Dimarco avoided considerable issues but will be given more time to heal, considering the short turnaround, rather than risk a more serious injury. Carlos Augusto and Luis Henrique will be the options on the left wing midweek. Dimarco will be re-evaluated ahead of next Monday's game versus Udinese.
Avoids serious damage
Dimarco is nursing a slight left knee sprain and will be a late call for Tuesday's clash versus Real Madrid, Sky Italy reported.
Analysis: Dimarco escaped without severe consequences and played through the problem for a while before exiting. He'll be assessed in the final training session to see whether he can make a quick recovery, but the team won't take any chances early in the season.
Assists and subs off versus Napoli
Dimarco assisted once to go with four shots (zero on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Napoli before leaving after the 62 minute due to a knee issue, Gianluca Di Marzio reported.
Analysis: Dimarco was active on the wing as usual, hit the crossbar with a gorgeous free kick near the end of the first half and set up Lautaro Martinez with a sliding cross on Inter's first goal. He picked up a knee problem before the interval and was heavily taped in the area afterward and exited a few minutes later. He faces a short turnaround to be ready for Tuesday's away game versus Real Madrid. Carlos Augusto or Luis Henrique would eventually fill in.
Creates seven chances
Dimarco generated two shots (one on goal), nine crosses (five accurate) and five corners in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Cagliari.
Analysis: Dimarco was Inter's primary creative outlet, generating an impressive seven chances while delivering nine crosses and taking five corners. Despite that volume, he once again failed to register a goal contribution and remains without a goal or assist through two Serie A appearances this season. His heavy involvement on set pieces and consistent crossing volume should continue to provide plenty of opportunities for attacking production.
Buries free kick against Bologna
Dimarco scored one goal to go with two shots (two on target), four crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus Bologna.
Analysis: Dimarco capped off a splendid season in style by putting a majestic free kick in the top corner, scoring his eighth goal, while he dished out 16 assists. He created at least one key pass in his last five displays, totaling 13. He has sent in two or more crosses in every appearance, averaging 8.3 (2.6 accurate) per contest.
Registers brace of assists
Dimarco assisted twice to go with two shots (one on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Torino.
Analysis: Dimarco recorded his third game with two or more assists to bring his league tally to 18 now, according to Serie A, surpassing Papu Gomez's record of 16 assists in a single campaign with still four games to go. The left wing back is having an exceptional season, also enjoying his best scoring campaign with six goals, while his side close in on the title. Across his last four games he has taken six shots and created 14 chances with 22 crosses delivered.
