MILAN – Italian Serie A football match, Saturday advance of the twentieth day. Inter-Sassuolo 0-0.
The children's choirs to remove the shameful shadow of racism from the stadiums with San Siro on the tribunes writes 'buu' (Brothers Universally United) to remember the international roots of Inter.
A special evening, softened by the innocent voices of over ten thousand children crowded in the stands. A cheer anyway sweetly forsennato for a team in the hunt for second place, but struggling to find the way of the goal against a Sassuolo who always plays the role of black beast of the Nerazzurri. And so the cabal is partly respected with a peer at the end of a game not to be thrown away, but confirms the difficulty of Inter to find the way of goal when Icardi goes off.
The captain did not record and the challenge was a series of lost opportunities: in the end, the lunge that would allow Inter to hold his breath on the neck to Napoli and to reach only two lengths from Neapolitan players (who play tomorrow) ) and then from the second place. De Zerbi's men, who start without any reverential fear, take the stage on the pitch. So much so that the neroverdi have the first opportunity with Locatelli, who exploits a hole in De Vrij, but kicks diagonally to the side. Answers for the Nerazzurri Vecino, whose head shot in screwing ends high. The tactical order of the guests puts the team of Spalletti in difficulty, which then suffers when the Sassuolo starts again, creating problems for Handanovic with Boateng and Berardi.
Inter problems are always the same, a slow and horizontal ball possession that does not lead to offensive danger. We need to ignite the spark and try the ex-Politano, who on Perisic's cross compels Consigli to dive to divert the corner with the right touch. Inter wakes up and raises the pressure, but collecting more corners than bargains. The Nerazzurri continue to keep their foot on the accelerator at the beginning of recovery, but it is Sassuolo to be still seen dangerously: Handanovic is overcome on a close shot of Boateng.
Inter play the Nainggolan card passing 4-2-3-1, but the Belgian is still far from the right physical condition to affect. On the other side De Zerbi lost Sensi and Duncan in a matter of minutes due to physical problems, while Spalletti tried everything to throw in the melee Borja Valero and Lautaro Martinez, immediately dangerous. It is not enough, because the Sassuolo fort holds, indeed the neroverdi in the final to touch the bang with Boateng and Boga. And the men of De Zerbi come out so among the applause of the children of San Siro.
