Alessandro Costacurta explained in detail how he should have acted Arturo vidal in one of the key plays of the tie between Inter de Milan and Borussia Mönchengladbach, for the first date of the Champions League.
Billy Costacurta is one of the most recognized defenders in the history of Italian football, as the banner of AC Milan’s most golden age. He won five Champions League and retired against San Siro surrendered with 41.
Today he is a respected television commentator, with the license and authority to move freely in football analysis. And it was Arturo Vidal’s turn, after the questioned criminal foul that he was penalized for a contact with Marcus Thuram.
“For me, in that area a midfielder should never intervene. It was two against one and he had to enter to delay (the game). Midfielders tend to be aggressive in the area, but I think they should have been more careful,” Costacurta assured in Sky Sport .
In that sense, the retired defender warned that Vidal “should not intervene” in that position and that “without that fault, Thuram would not have gone anywhere.”
Vidal was criticized by the Italian press after his role as a debutant in the Champions League with the Inter shirt.
La Gazzetta dello Sport gave it a rating of 5 points, while Tuttosport and Corriere dello Sport gave it a 4.0.
The Chilean midfielder hopes to have his revenge next Saturday, when Inter visit Genoa for the fifth round of Italian Serie A.
For his part, Antonio Conte assured that he is waiting for the severity of the contracture in the adductor suffered by Alexis Sánchez to be known, to include him in the entourage.
