Thanks to a heavy goal by Lautaro Martinez, Inter returns to winning after the defeat against Juventus: the Nerazzurri at San Siro beat Genoa 1-0 and managed to take home full points from a very complicated match in which the red and blue team fought hard and put up a beautiful performance.
In this match at San Siro, 5 things emerged that probably not everyone saw and that we immediately analyze with this analysis of Inter-Genoa.
1 On social media many Napoli fans – in view of the direct confrontation on Saturday at Maradona – complained about a missed booking against Simone Inzaghi who, caught in extreme heat and perhaps a bit of nervousness about something that his players were not doing right against Genoa, entered the pitch.
2 In the same way, the Azzurri supporters rightfully lamented the missing yellow card for Mkhitaryan who committed a foul in midfield stopping a Genoa player in full stride and that being under warning he would have missed the match on Saturday in Napoli in case of a booking.
3 To the detriment of Inter there is instead a rather peculiar incident that saw Vasquez as the protagonist who, falling in the box, touched the ball with his hand, the referee awarded a goal kick and not an attacking foul with free kick but the ball never went out. The VAR could perhaps have intervened here.
4 Genoa played a great game from a tactical point of view and put the Nerazzurri in difficulty in the construction of the game and also counted on an excellent performance by Frendrup, a midfielder who in January was linked to some big clubs including Inter and who for certain features of running and involvement also reminds a bit of Barella.
5 Finally, the last point to reflect on after Inter’s victory over Genoa is related to the Nerazzurri captain Lautaro Martinez. The Argentine No. 10 refuted the accusations for a blasphemy after the defeat with Juve and decided a very heavy match with a three point goal which crowns an encouraging performance for him.
