Inter-Milan: Fonseca says no to the record, Inzaghi’s confusion. The irony of Juve fans: “Mariani like Orsato”

A derby that offers surprisesOn the eve of the match it seemed that the last bench had already been written for Paulo Fonseca and another Inter victory. Instead, the Portuguese coach and the Rossoneri have completely turned history upside down with a match and a result that now calls into question Simone Inzaghi and his management of this first part of the season.

Fonseca’s victory

One step away from a sensational dismissal, Paulo Fonseca tries to turn his season around and especially those of Milan. On social media, the opinion is unanimous about the Portuguese coach who until a few days ago seemed to have already packed his bags. Against Inter, the Rossoneri played the best match under his management with a screaming start to the match and a second half made of right choices and a lot of courage. Right choices that start from deploy Gabbia as a starter from the first minute and finally the compliments from the fans also for his attitude over the last few days: “A round of applause for Fonseca: a true gentleman, another would have already sent journalists to hell every weekend with the questions they feed. Let it not be just a flash in the pan”. And again: “Mr. Fonseca won with thoughtful choices after a week of public humiliation. He deserves it more than anyone else”. After 6 derbies lost by Milan, Fonseca says no to the negative record of 7 defeats in the derby and earns his place in AC Milan history.

Inzaghi’s presumption

Over the last year and a half I have received practically nothing but compliments for Simone Inzaghi but tonight the Nerazzurri coach is also in the crosshairs of criticism.A disjointed, distracted team, badly positioned on the pitch, starts badly and ends worse. The substitution of the entire midfield says a lot about Inzaghi’s dissatisfaction but also about the confusion that was created after”. And again: “The worst victim of Inzaghi’s management. Let’s see if the slap does any good”. While Ale comments: “Simone Inzaghi was truly unrecognisable tonight. With three substitutions he destroyed a formidable midfield”.

The irony of Juventus fans

Inter’s defeat immediately creates confusion on social mediaJuventus fans take a stand right from the eve, clearly siding with the Rossoneri. And after the derby, among the protagonists there is also thereferee Mariani who managed to manage the match in the best possible way with the VAR correcting his only big mistake (the penalty awarded to Milan for Lautaro’s touch which however was with the shoulder and not with the arm). With the theme of the “Marotta League” always very strong on social media, ironic messages also arrive: “TheAt this moment my thoughts go to Mariani who after this defeat of Inter will no longer referee the Nerazzurri”. And again: “Mariani will no longer referee Inter – comments Antonio – It’s the new Orsato”.
