Serie A gives Inter a night at the top alone, while waiting for Roma and Lazio to take the field. According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, the Nerazzurri approached the match exactly as Chivu had asked on the eve: first half to close it out, second half to manage.
Half an hour was enough to score three goals and secure the result. Gilardino‘s Parma was unable to shake up the match: the visiting coach, instead of finding a spark, was stunned by Inter’s start. Three points come in the first outing after a long break.
An additional positive note, reports the Gazzetta, came from the goal: Martinez kept a clean sheet, not a minor detail in a league where Inter had already conceded 8 goals, a number considered excessive. In the second half, the team moved with greater ease, favoring passing over the search for goals. Esposito delivered, according to the Gazzetta, a solid performance in service of the team, even without finding the net.
On Tuesday there’s Bruges: the Gazzetta warns that one half alone will hardly be enough to win, but leaves every possibility open, because this Inter, when it wants, can be irresistible.
