INTER-ATALANTA 1-0
(57′ Darmian)
Inter report cards – Edited by Ivan Cardia
Drunk 6 – Chills on the back when he fumbles broken down and offers Maehle a penalty on the move, ordinary administration for the rest of the evening, including a nice high exit in the final that sends everyone to sleep without fearing overtime.
Darmian 7.5 – He has a delicate role to play and it will probably be for a while. Among the most convincing in the first half, in the second half he unlocks the game with a foray that you really don’t expect. With a quote from Renziana memory: Milan, stay calm. And now who takes it off anymore.
The Free 6.5 – Zapata is his own distant relative, but Hojlund also sees her little and from afar, despite the considerable generation gap.
Unripe 6.5 – Arm in arm he conveys less and less confidence than when he is in the role most congenial to him, but on balance he does not suffer and still manages to become leader of the back department.
Dumfries 6 – It comes out tested, a sign that it’s not yet one hundred percent. Some good bucking, a little effort, no illuminating passages but a good feeling of reliability. (Dal 77′ D’Ambrosio 6 – Lots of blows and few fears).
Stretcher 6.5 – The petrol is there, the usual heel to embellish an almost banal evening as well. He grows like all of Inter at the start of the second half.
Calhanoglu 7 – The pole is a bolt from the blue of those that he can give away. Complicated direction in an evening in which pressing and cold break the breath and the rhythm, the action of the 1-0 was also born from him. (Dal 71′ Asllani 6 – The opportunity has been postponed from the start. Too bad, but he’ll get over it.)
Mkhitaryan 6 – Resting is not the right word for the Armenian, Inzaghi assures us, but the impression is that he would need it. Orderly evening and ordinary as well.
Gosens 6.5 – Poisoned tooth and a great desire to show off. Whether with his ex or with his current coach, they are made of him. He still goes close to scoring on a couple of occasions and shows comforting forward steps. (From 71′ Dimarco 6 – A nice cross of his, a hair too high).
Luke 6 – We see Godot again, brilliance is something else and therefore we can say that he hasn’t arrived yet. There is some hope, however: the Big Rom In the good old days, with a perfect ball to go and smash the goal, he would have made another choice than the easy discharge. But we also have to be satisfied with some signs of recovery, including a good dirty job. (Dal 71′ Dzeko 6 – San Siro is at his feet, the race has to be mothballed and he knows how to do it).
Lautaro 6.5 – Given the latest, the arm band will have to get used to. A lot of pressing, he puts a hand on Darmian’s goal. Ups and downs when it comes to hurting firsthand, but the Tour never cheats. (From 85′ Correa sv).
Simone Inzaghi 6.5 – Leave the hot potato in the stands and really limit the turnover to the bare minimum: a sign of how much he cares about the cup. But winning is also important to prepare for the derby in the best possible way on a psychological level. Good answers from several of the protagonists lined up on the field this evening.

Re-read the LIVE TMW of the race
Musso 6 – Not very busy in the first half, in which, however, he also has to thank the post on a shot by Calhanoglu. In the second half he is speared by Darmian, having little to blame himself for.
Toloi 6 – Called upon several times by an Inter very present in the Atalanta area, he is always ready.
Djimsity 6.5 – Excellent in the center of the area, taking away several important balls from the Inter forwards and moving them away without paying too much attention to aesthetics.
Scalvini 6 – In addition to doing his duty defensively, he sometimes also goes forward. from 72′ Soppy 6 – He brings freshness to the finish, in which, however, he thinks more of containing Dimarco than of pushing.
Hateboer 5.5 – He has to face a Gosens, who pushes a lot on his side, contracting more than one difficulty and pushing little on the right. from 67′ Ederson 5,5 – Enter to give more liveliness to the midfield of Bergamo, but fails in this intent.
The Roon 6 – It should be the usual dam in the middle of the field, but it is often a mercy of the opposing midfielders who press high and then serve the wingers or strikers. Better in recovery.
Koopmeiners 6 – Quite ordinary race, without particular errors but not even big rings. Try overall sufficient.
Mahle 5.5 – Forced on the defensive by Dumfries, he holds up the duel with the Dutchman with mixed success. However, he does not give up proposing himself forward on some occasions. In one of these, a comfortable goal chance failed in the second half.
Pasalic 5.5 – Carousel between the lines, but not emerging with his proverbial insertions in the area or in the finishing phase. From 55′ Lookman 5,5 – The Goddess’ extra man in this period is put on the field to make the breakthrough, but is closed well by the Inter defense.
Have 5.5 – He struggles to ignite on the left sector of the attack, well limited by a careful Darmian every time he tries to enter the area. He has only one chance, during the second half. from 67′ Muriel 5,5 – He struggles to be seen in the last few metres, never creating problems for Onana.
Zapata 5 – Followed like a shadow by De Vrij and served little by his companions, he had a decidedly difficult evening. He has a chance in the first half, but he wastes it badly. From 55′ Hojlund 6 – The best of the substitutes, for attitude and for an opportunity during the second half.
Gian Piero Gasperini 5.5 – Too wait-and-see attitude in the first half, in which in one circumstance he was pardoned by a post on Calhanoglu’s conclusion. Things don’t improve in the second half, with the changes being made. Completely deserved elimination.
