Even last night, just like in the derby, the absence of Denzel Dumfries on the right flank was felt. Carlos Augusto, adapted to that position, mainly tried to contain the opponents’ attacks, while Luis Henrique—who came on for Dimarco at the end—was unable to make an impact despite a few timid attempts.
As explained by the Gianluca Di Marzio website, regarding Dumfries‘ injury, there is some encouraging news compared to the pessimism of recent days. The Dutchman’s condition is in fact clearly improving and suggests an early return to the field. However, only next week will the recovery time be clearer.
Inter‘s hope is that Dumfries can make it in time for the big match against Liverpool: “Positive news is also coming from Denzel Dumfries. The Dutch full-back is feeling better and the club hopes to have him available again between the match against Como and the Champions League clash with Liverpool. However, Dumfries’ condition will only be defined during the next week.”
