Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku has joined an elite list after a goalkeeping mistake handed the Belgian his second goal in the first half of the Nerrazzuri's away clash with Napoli. The 26-year-old forward continued his fine scoring form with two remarkable break-away goals which handed his side the lead in Monday night's Serie A encounter.

A costly slip for Napoli in the 13th minute set the former Manchester United striker on course to draw first blood with a sensational solo-run. Inside the 33rd minute, the Inter striker was gifted a second goal by goalkeeper Alex Meret to extend his side's lead. Once again, he raced from his half and went all the way to fire another left footed effort on the edge of the box which the Napoli shot-stopper failed to gather from the near post. Watch:`

Arkadiusz Milik pulled one back for Napoli six minutes later but regardless the outcome, Romelu Lukaku landed himself among a host of Inter legends with his first half double. Currently, the Belgian has scored 13 goals in 18 appearances - one more than his total tally for Manchester United the whole of last season.
