For the central game of the 26th round of the Italian Serie A, the organizers of the competition allocated a separate day in the calendar, in which, in addition, an international holiday was also celebrated. On this occasion, the public gathered on the television screens of Inter Milan and Atalanta de Bergamas expected at least one spectacular match to coincide with the solemn occasion. And the fight at the top of the table forced the teams to show their best football.
The leader of the championship race: this is how the Antonio Conte team positioned themselves before the start of the reporting game. And in no way would the position of the “snakes” be altered, even in the worst case scenario of confrontation at Giuseppe Meazza. A comfortable getaway from the closest pursuer in the person of city dwellers gives room for maneuver, but wasting it so early in the season would obviously not be the best possible option.
For Atalanta, the situation in qualifying before the reporting game was apparently simpler, as at least two teams looked at their back less than their opponents. But at the same time, the position of the positions of Gian Piero Gasperini always threatens to attack the Roman Roma, so the “Goddess” had no reason to relax at all. Therefore, under a tense confrontation, we signed up even before its official start.
Quite difficult to see, but tactically wide, the game of teams controlled by two ingenious strategists; such a feature could have received the reported duel at the end of it. Nobody was going to risk a possible loss of points, so we never witnessed the dominance of one of the games. The exchange of attacks with periodic injections occurred with enviable regularity, although individual fragments of activity were separated by much of the fighting in the center of the field.
Inter spent the first quarter of the hour of the match in active pressure, but they extracted only a moment from it with a spectacular blow / pass towards their goal from Romero, whom Lukaku was actively pressuring, but Sportiello did not miss a curiosity in a header. . Atalanta looked puzzled in those minutes, but gradually regained consciousness in the middle of the time, creating something akin to a scoring chance in a situation with Zapata’s shot from an acute angle on the left wing passing the far post at minute 18.
Then a long period of calm awaited us in the middle of the first half, from which the teams came out with two dangerous situations in the Inter penalty area. “Diosa”, in honor of the holiday, obviously acted as aggravating before the break, and two corner kicks on Ruslan Malinovsky’s right flank were able to protect him from a non-obvious replacement after the break, but Zapata couldn’t break through. Handanovich headed in, and Jimsiti missed Brozovic at the near post.
Atalanta entered the second half already with Ilicic in the lineup, but did not have time to organize anything dangerous on the other’s doorstep, when a dangerous episode immediately came into their possession, after Eriksen came out as a substitute. The Dane from a corner on the right wing entered the center of the penalty area, the ball shot into the air, Bastogne was catching him in a jump, but Gosens hit him in the leg. Despite this, the defender of the “snakes” managed to launch it on a teammate in the central zone, and Shkriniar sent the ball under the left post. Obviously, after this episode, Inter’s pattern of play was rebuilt towards an absolutely defensive one.
Atalanta had several successful plays on other people’s possessions, but the performance of Zapata and Pashalich left much to be desired, and a successful kick from Handanovich on the spot with a Muriel kick from the left side of the penalty area secured Conte’s team from a miss. . . As a result, Gasperini was disarmed.
In the next round, Inter Milan will play an away game against Torino, while Bergaman Atalanta will host La Spezia at home.
