Inter Milan moved up to fourth in Serie A following a 7-1 thrashing of Atalanta, with both Mauro Icardi and Ever Banega scoring hat tricks.
Icardi opened the scoring in the 17th minute, pouncing to convert a rebound, and within nine minutes he had completed his hat trick -- a strike from the penalty spot was followed by a header from a corner.
Banega then made it four in the 31st minute before adding his second three minutes later with another close-range finish.
Remo Freuler pulled one back for the visitors before the break, but Roberto Gagliardini made it six for Inter with a goal against his former club after the restart, with Banega completing his hat trick from a free kick on 67 minutes.
