Inter win in Florence (2-0) and fly to the top of the championship awaiting the response of Milan, who play at home with Crotone. Simple success, despite tradition, against a modest team, not surprisingly located on the right side of the table. La Fiorentina has risen from the miasma of the outrageous fight for salvation, but remains mired in endless mediocrity. Had he been temporarily tied with Bonaventura (full crossbar), after Inter’s first lead, he would have eventually been shipwrecked in front of an opponent he found himself after the Coppa Italia loss with Juventus and who feels he has all the numbers to win . the Scudetto.
Barella and Brozovic scored, one goal per time. A third was ruled out at Lukaku, Perisic’s offside position, but the result was never in doubt. Indeed, in the end, one wonders why Inter did not extend and the answer is found in the decisive saves by Dragowski, a little celebrated but very effective goalkeeper.. Inter, faithful to the imperishable 3-5-2, lined up the starting team with the sole exception of Perisic for Young. Fiorentina, on the other hand, although faithful to a form that reflects the Nerazzurri, had to resign Milenkovic and Castrovilli (suspended) and Ribéry (injured).
Regarding the absent, Inter would have won the same both for the position they have lined up (Conte, in the stands, he will surely have been happy), and for the difference in quality of the eleven in the field. Prandelli is a good coach, surely he had the merit of having removed the fear of an unjustified relegation from Fiorentina, he won in Turin with Juve and accumulated important points, but he is no longer (or not yet) at the level of Antonio Conte, who presides over his team’s game as the most talented of strategists. More simply, Inter are clearly stronger than Fiorentina, they have a game that is now passed down by heart, they find the door easily and they have a couple of players with unpredictable creative verve. One is Hakimi, a right-wing helix who knows how to determine a constant numerical superiority. The other is Barella, a perpetual motion with very little chance of error. From a combination of them – not even five minutes had passed – the first opportunity for Inter was born, which Dragowski thwarted thanks to his reactivity.
Fiorentina, subdued by the excellence of Inter, responded for the first time with Vlahovic (Biraghi’s header from the center), but Handanovic rejected. Then, after a round shot by Barella, after a corner kick (1-0 for Inter in the 31 ‘), the violating team appeared in the 36th minute with a shot to the crossbar by Bonaventura (assisted by Martínez Quarta) and in the continuation of the action, a conclusion from Biraghi forced Handanovic to kick. So nothing. Both because Inter has retaken the leadership (the assistance of Sánchez for a high header from Lukaku), and because the changes in the second half (Kouamé for Borja Valero, Gagliardini for Vidal) have shifted the weight of the balance to Inter’s side. . The duplication came early (51 ‘: Hakimi sweeps the right wing and Perisic needs a ball to push just inside the net) and a little more on the third goal (Lukaku) could have come if Perisic hadn’t been offside for a bit.
There was half an hour left and everything was done. Without recognizing a clear tranquility in the management of the double advantage, Conte, from the stands, ordered the change of Sánchez with Lautaro. The intention seemed clear: to warm up Lautaro for Tuesday’s match in the Italian Cup with Juve. The Inter coach does not feel anything out of competition and in Turin he will line up the starting team. First, because the Coppa Italia is a goal for Inter more than for Juve. Secondly, because eliminating a historic rival from the competition and gaining an advantage in heads-up matches is an almost existential goal for a coach who experiences defeat as a pathology.. Inter in the last half hour was overwhelming and only Dragowski prevented first Perisic and then Gagliardini from rounding the score. The changes in the final weighed down the scoreboard, but left the result and the course of the race unchanged. Three easy points for Inter at a difficult time. The ranking should not give way to the head, but it is a sign. Whatever happens, Milan will not be able to escape.
