Juve-Inter, Inzaghi after the semi-final of the Italian Cup

Matches between Juventus and Inter are never trivial and the ten minutes between the full whistle confirm this to the whole world of football. What remains, more than the three expulsions and the controversies, however, is the 1-1 draw in the semi-final first leg of the Coppa Italia which delegates the assignment of the pass for the final to the return match. Simone Inzaghi comments on the evening at the Allianz Stadium, starting from the final chaos: “Lukaku’s celebration was misunderstood – explains the Nerazzurri coach – and unfortunately we won’t have him in the return leg for the final tumult like Handanovic, they are two very important players It wasn’t a pretty sight to see. Something before that exultation was perceived, but I’m going beyond that.”

Inzaghi then goes on to analyze the match: “I liked the performance, the judgment wouldn’t have changed without the 1-1 draw in the 95th minute. The team came to put in a good performance on a difficult pitch against a healthy team, we are We were compact and aggressive as I asked. We care a lot about this competition, with a return win we would make another final.” Obviously, there was no shortage of self-examination about the goal conceded: “On the Juventus goal there were two players who could have avoided Rabiot’s cross, then we made a mistake, leaving Cuadrado alone and Bastoni was unfortunately unable to clear the shot on the line The result could have been different, but we have to look at the performance that left me satisfied even beyond the final draw”. Finally, a hint on the difficulties in capitalizing: “The goals? This problem has conditioned us, we have to do more and better because right now it’s not enough”. At the press conference, then, the proposal: “Lukaku’s red? I hope the yellow card can be removed as already happened with Lookman”.
