Tresoldi's first-half penalty was cancelled out by Lautaro Martinez, but the German netted twice to put Brugge in control before a manic end to proceedings. 

Martinez's second of the match was quickly followed up by Romeo Vermant's fine finish, but even after a late Ange-Yoan Bonny, Brugge were able to see out the victory. 

Brugge survived an early wave of pressure from their hosts and came close to taking the lead when Inter's failure to clear a flat corner into the area saw Tresoldi crash a strike against the upright, though San Siro was stunned into silence moments later. 

Carlos Forbs led a lightning break from an Inter corner with a driving run from his own half before he was chopped down inside the penalty area by Hakan Calhanoglu, with Tresoldi stepping up to ruthlessly dispatch the spot-kick into the top-right corner. 

Calhanoglu came within inches of atoning for his earlier error, but his swerving attempt cannoned against the crossbar, with Martinez then denied an equaliser by the offside flag, with the Inter captain just beyond the Brugge defence when he headed in Calhanoglu's free-kick. 

But Inter was able to draw level at the end of a frenetic first half through Martinez, who shrugged off Brandon Mechele before prodding past Yann Sommer in the 44th minute. 

Sommer then produced a stunning stop to repel Martinez early in the second half, and that save proved crucial for Brugge who retook the lead just after the hour. Josep Martinez was too slow to get a ball over the top, allowing Forbs to steal in and feed Tresoldi, who stroked into the empty net.

Tresoldi completed his hat-trick in the 74th minute. Forbs cut inside and saw his shot saved by Martinez, only for Brugge number seven to tuck home the rebound in off the post to net his fourth Champions League goal of the season. 

Inter threatened a comeback when Martinez brought up his brace when he finished from close range after Petar Sucic's shot was saved, but Brugge restored their two-goal lead in the 87th minute through Vermant's delicate loft over Martinez. 

Cristian Chivu's side hit back again in the third minute of second-half stoppage time as Bonny cut inside and picked out the top-right corner, but Brugge was able to hold on to claim an incredible win at San Siro.
