Yesterday evening was a wasted opportunity for Marko Arnautovic against Young Boys. The Austrian striker, deployed from the first minute in Inter’s offensive department alongside Mehdi Taremi, certainly did not shine. For the former Bologna player, it was a night to forget, not only for his performance but also for his penalty kick error at the start of the second half.
Also for this reason, the main Italian sports newspapers were not generous towards Arnautovic, punished in the ratings yesterday evening with insufficient marks:
LA GAZZETTA DELLO SPORT 4 – The penalty is the incident, yet at least he is seen there. Because otherwise, he is practically invisible, never being a point of reference for his team.
CORRIERE DELLO SPORT 4.5 – His error from the penalty spot at the start of the second half weighs heavily: he leaves disconsolate. It was a great opportunity to regain enthusiasm and points in Inzaghi’s hierarchies: wasted.
TUTTOSPORT 5 – The missed penalty weighs like a boulder on his evening.
PASSION INTER 4 – Inzaghi sees him out of the game and calls him back immediately, but he fails to shake himself up and ends up touching very few balls. On the contrary, he sinks: he has the opportunity for redemption, but he fails to score the penalty, kicking it badly.
