Carlos Augusto was one of the nicest surprises for Inter in the match against Bayern Munich. At Allianz Arena, the Nerazzurri winger replaced Federico Dimarco, first initiating the move that led to the 1-0 goal, and later also providing the assist for Frattesi’s decisive strike.
Thus, the Brazilian player effectively ensured that the absence of the starter on the left wing wasn’t felt too strongly. Nevertheless, it’s clear that Dimarco’s physical condition is causing significant concern at Inter. Simone Inzaghi himself discussed the issue during the post-match press conference.
Federico Dimarco’s Condition: Simone Inzaghi’s Statement
Federico Dimarco did not start in Bayern Munich–Inter and did not step onto the pitch even as a substitute during the match. It was an unusual decision by Simone Inzaghi, immediately raising doubts about the winger’s fitness.
The coach spoke about it at the post-match press conference, explaining:
Dimarco’s condition will have to be evaluated. He was willing to be available against Bayern, but together with the medical staff we decided not to risk him tonight. With matches every three days, it’s better to consider losing him for 2–3 games rather than 7.
