Frankly, it could have been better, but definitely worse. I am obviously referring to today’s Champions League draw, a competition in which Inter, placed in the third bracket, could have ended up for the third year in a row in the group of death, or even find the Blindfolded Goddess on their side, for very challenges. more affordable.
Some sort of middle ground has arrived. I truly believe that the glass can be seen as both half empty and half full. Let me explain better.
Today Real Madrid – that is the current Spanish champion team, and not so much to say and with all the respect of the world, of the Latvian league – seems less formidable than in previous years. Okay, I agree. But the Meringues they can however count on a shortlist of undisputed champions. People used to winning, so lifting the Big Ears Cup had become a habit.
Surely the “mejor equipo del siglo veinte” remains the favorite team for the next round. For a first place to hit without too much trouble. It will be interesting to see Hakimi against his past. And the impact of the Nerazzurri at the Bernabeu against a world elite team. Their legs should not tremble, on the contrary: there must be the desire and the conviction of being able to storm the house of the Whites. Otherwise we avoid talking top team. This does not mean having to win by force, but playing with conviction and on an equal footing, see last year’s Barcelona match, certainly yes. Therefore, having made the necessary clarifications, please do not talk to me in this specific case, about lucky draw, because it is not so. In the first range there was the Zenit. If Inter had ended up with the Russians, this adjective could have been used, at least for the top seed.
Of course, in this case the clash with the Shakhtar would not have been possible. But since we don’t go anywhere with the ifs and buts, let’s analyze the reality, that is, the sneakiness of the Ukrainians. Inter are certainly stronger. If in August Lukaku and his teammates gave 5 slaps to their opponents, the gap is clear. But be careful: Conte must be very good here. In past seasons, while not winning anything, it was very clear how some Nerazzurri players believed they were better than their opponents. And then on the pitch they approached the match badly. And then unexpectedly lost the determined match. Being a great team also means winning when you have to win. And Inter, at least in Europe, must certainly take this further step. Well but not very well, in short.
We close with Borussia Moenchengladbach. Certainly with Marseille they were the worst possible team in the fourth pot. But just as surely it is not a club that inspires real fear if you want to go far. You will just have to do your duty. With the utmost respect. But without playing the game of life.
Let’s say that if Mou’s Inter had found a similar group, it would have been a lucky draw. But for it to be the same for Conte’s team, you will have to prove your worth on the pitch. On the green and not social. Everyone is good there.
