Taremi on Target As Inter Milan Defeats Red Star 4-0
TEHRAN (Tasnim)— Iranian forward Mehdi Taremi scored his first goal for Inter Milan on Tuesday as he struck a penalty past Israel and Red Star Belgrade goalkeeper Omri Glazer hours after his country launched a barrage of missiles at Israel.
Taremi, who joined Inter from Porto in the offseason, played a crucial role in Inter’s 4-0 victory over Red Star in the Champions League by also setting up two of his team’s other goals.
The 32-year-old Taremi was not asked about the situation back in his homeland when he was interviewed by Italian television, which focused on his first goal for the Nerazzurri.
Inter will meet Young Boys on October 23 in its next Champions League fixture while Red Star travel to Monaco a day earlier.
