In Italy, Jamie Vardy came on as a second-half substitute in Cremonese’s 4-1 Serie A defeat at Inter Milan.

The former England striker’s new club were already four goals down when he was introduced in the 58th minute after Inter forward Ange-Yoan Bonny scored one and assisted goals for Lautaro Martinez, Federico Dimarco and Nicolo Barella.

Federico Bonazzoli claimed Cremonese’s late consolation, with fourth-placed Inter moving level on 12 points with the top three of AC Milan, Napoli and Roma.

Danilo Cataldi’s penalty in the 13th minute of added time salvaged Lazio a 3-3 draw at home to Torino, while Lecce won 1-0 at Parma.
