Sabatini praises Roma's first half: Inter in trouble on the left wing

The day after the 2-2 at the Olimpico, Sandro Sabatini analyzed the performance of Roma and Inter. “A spectacular match of international level,” declared the journalist. The Giallorossi and the Nerazzurri each dominated a half, and in the end, the draw was the fairest result.

“Naturally, one thinks of praising Koné’s brace in the first half, in which Roma were absolutely extraordinary and bullied Inter with the midfielder as the protagonist,” said Sabatini. The journalist highlighted how the Giallorossi dominated the first half of the match.

“Chivu did not trust Carlos Augusto, who had played some good matches in Dimarco’s absence. Dimarco was brought back in, but he is not in form, and together with Bastoni on that side, Inter suffered a lot,” he explained.

Despite the difficulties on the left flank, Sabatini emphasized the contribution of Lautaro Martinez and Thuram: “In Inter, Lautaro Martinez sorts everything out for everyone together with Thuram.” The journalist concluded by calling the match “pure spectacle” that would almost be a shame to tarnish with criticism.
