Inter is making the maximum effort to get back into the game after the 1-0 scored by Estupinan. However, it is not easy to find the right space in the Rossoneri defense, which is always very deep and attentive.
In the heart of the second half, Inter tried to do damage with substitutions and the entry of Denzel Dumfries in place of an insufficient Luis Henrique, among the worst on the field. The Dutchman immediately tried to bring some liveliness to the play, both with his runs and with some crosses.
It was precisely in one of these situations that a potential goal opportunity for Inter was created, but it ended in nothing, at least from a technical point of view.
Chivu-Saelemaekers exchange: what happened
A ball from the right wing found Saelemaekers poorly positioned in defensive diagonal, perhaps too tight. No Inter player managed to get there, but the Belgian, letting the ball run, seemed to brush it with his very outstretched arm.
Chivu from his perspective immediately called for a penalty, just like some players on the field. Smiling, the Inter coach drew the attention of the winger, who immediately said that everything was regular and that he did not touch the ball. In short, nothing happened and the referee indicated to play on.
