The fourth team of the table played a goalless draw at home in the 22nd round and did not allow the “blue-blacks” to triumph in the ninth match in the series. The Slovak national team was present on the stop post in the group of guests Milan Škriniar.
The goal was not scored in the match, but there was no shortage of chances. However, the home goalkeeper Juan Musso and his counterpart Samir Handanovič showed their quality. The point gained was rather small for the home Atalante, who is fighting for the Champions League and is eight points away from the leader of Inter.
“I think we deserved to get something better from this duel. We tried a little harder than the opponent. Inter pulled over and waited for our mistakes.” According to AFP, Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini said.
Intera coach Massimiliano Farris, who had to replace Simone Inzaghi at the press conference, also admitted a more passive approach to the duel because he lost his vote during the meeting. “We didn’t want to play so passively. Obviously we haven’t quite rested yet after Wednesday’s Juventus triumph in the Super Cup. We’ve had a challenging duel of 120 minutes and it’s not easy to play against Atalante, even when you’re fresh.”
The main character of Inter was goalkeeper Handanovič. Shortly after the change of sides, he shone against Matteo Pessin, and ten minutes before the end he also caught Luis Muriel. “Given how the match progressed, the point is still good. We had a good chance, but the opponent could also score. The result is fair.” declared the Slovenian goalkeeper.
Inter finished a string of 39 matches in which he scored. In the league table, he holds the leading position with a two-point lead over the city rival AC, against which he will play on February 6. Before that, however, there will be a duel in the round of the Italian Cup against Empoli and in Serie A against Venice.
