ESPN News Services reported that Napoli had looked in control after two goals in the space of five minutes early in the second half from Matteo Politano and Rasmus Højlund. However, Martínez started the fightback before Marcus Thuram headed an equaliser with eight minutes left. The Inter captain then snatched victory in added time after Napoli failed to clear a corner.
The winning effort was Martínez's 134th goal for Inter, taking him past Stefano Nyers for third place on Inter's all-time list. It also gave Inter a third Serie A win from two goals down in 2026, the most of any team in Europe's top five leagues.
