It was Inter Milan who looked more assured than AC Milan in yesterday’s Coppa Italia clash despite squad rotation and missing players.
This is the view in today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews.
In the end, neither Inter Milan nor AC Milan can have too many complaints about a draw yesterday.
However, if there was a team who looked more capable of winning it, it was probably Inter.
The Nerazzurri had the balance of chances to score. They had more possession, pushed higher up the pitch, and forced a few good saves out of Rossoneri captain Mike Maignan.,
Inter Milan More Assured Than AC Milan Despite Squad Rotation
And in the view of Tuttosport, Inter’s performance was particularly impressive considering the squad rotation.
On paper, there were really only four first-choice starters in the Inter lineup. These were Alessandro Bastoni, Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, and Marcus Thuram.
Milan, on the other hand, had something closer to their strongest possible starting eleven.
Nevertheless, Inter looked like a team with a very clear identity and style of play.
The Nerazzurri were able to impose themselves on the match for long stretches.
Absences of players like Lautaro Martinez and Denzel Dumfries are always going to take something away from Inter.
Then, Federico Dimarco also remained on the bench for the full ninety minutes.
But nevertheless, the Nerazzurri did not look to disjointed.,
