The Portuguese full-back born in 2000 misses the match against Inter and is the perfect representation of the searing defeat suffered last night
It is, unfortunately, a time of analysis at home Lazio. The shocking evening at the stadium Olympic it’s very heavy,Inter yesterday he destroyed the home team, unable to muster a nervous reaction capable of avoiding the humiliation they then suffered. Beyond, then, the responsibilities of the individual performers, the fact remains that yesterday the Biancocelesti lost contact with the match which, little by little, saw the Nerazzurri take off in all areas of the pitch to the point of actually annihilating completely the hosts.
Who never entered the game yesterday was Nuno Tavares. In Naples and againstAjax he had returned to the field after the low-grade lesion of the semimembranosus of the left thigh suffered with his national team. And he had done it, between the ownership against the team of Conte and his entry into Amsterdam, with two performances of absolute level, in which he had once again impressed the Biancocelesti fans with his efforts and plays of very high intensity.
Yesterday, however, the biancoceleste train remained stopped at the starting point. He tried after a few minutes with his classic advance, however contained by the defense ofInter. His advances soon end, at the same time as the rest of the team. In the first half, his side was identified by Inzaghi to hurt the Biancocelesti, the Nerazzurri often work with the ball on the right offensive lane and bring many men to support them on that side.
And in the end the guests punctured on that side: after the opening goal from a penalty converted by Çalhanoğlul’Inter accelerates wildly and starts on the counterattack, Dumfries is served and Tavares is both misaligned with the rest of the defense and late to the man, the Dutch winger puts in a dangerous cross from first and Marusicwho had made the defensive diagonal to cover a hole left by Patricpuncture the intervention and leave Dimarco free to unload the ball into the goal for the double advantage.
Upon returning to the field, number 30 remains one of the most proactive: probably the only positive note of his match, overall perhaps he is the only Biancocelesti on the pitch who tried to try for the entire duration of the match. But it’s not enough: he remains null in the proactive phase, while in his penalty area he gets caught badly again by Dumfrieswhich converges centrally on a tip of Sticks and heads it in Provedel for the goal of the momentary 0-4.
He is the embodiment of the shocking defeat againstInter. Always commendable, tired yes but never willing to give up, always attentive and clean and more than proactive in moving forward. Until yesterday, as mentioned. Now for him, as for the rest of the team, everything needs to be put back on the right tracks immediately, a defeat like this can really undermine the serenity and spirit of the group. As well as, in the specific case of Tavarescan have a huge impact on the mind of a player who has had an absolutely extraordinary season so far.
