The derby lost terribly by Inter against Milan on Sunday night continues to be discussed and was also analyzed during the broadcast on the Twitch channel Viva El Futbol last night. This is Antonio Cassano’s view on the match and the course of the Nerazzurri’s season:
“Milan fully deserved to win with their coach’s ideas, they steamrolled Inter. Crisis? We can’t talk about an Inter crisis now, but if they don’t win the championship, it’s a failure, even if they come up -1 from the first, because they’re by far the strongest in Italy. They didn’t play a great match in the derby, but they could have also been 2-1 up if Maignan hadn’t made that great save. Fonseca was right: never has anyone put Inter in such difficulty in Serie A.”
And again: “I’ve seen a disconnected team, the midfield didn’t play a good game. They went into the game with the light-heartedness of thinking ‘we’re stronger’. They had 15 points last year, this year they have 8 after 5 games.”
A comment, then, also about Inter’s chances in the Champions League and on Simone Inzaghi’s management, now in his fourth year: “After the match in Manchester, which was defensive with some peaks on the counter-attack, they made Inter look like a contender for the Champions League victory and I read Inzaghi among the best in the world. I don’t understand where this European status of Inter comes from, if anything there’s the risk that in four years of Inzaghi’s Inter might only win one championship. I hope they win and I imagine they can do it, but if we get to May and they haven’t won, I want to hear you…“
