Como closes Inter's lines of play, but the Nerazzurri are not discouraged, create chances and break the deadlock in the second half
Inter bid farewell to San Siro for 2024 with a victory, an important victory because it is not trivial. Como limits the Nerazzurri, who waste too much but also reveal themselves patients. Patience is no small feat, also because at times the Nerazzurri have accustomed us to nervousness and outbursts which have compromised the results. Inter waits, moves the ball without getting upset, concedes little to their opponents and could score much sooner than they did. It's not the brilliant Inter of the Olimpico, but it's mature and against an attentive and well placed Como the Nerazzurri take three very important points. Another clean sheet and second place behind Atalanta, with a game to recover at Fiorentina.
ERRORS
—
Game blocked in the first half, there are Como's merits because Fabregas prepared the game well tactically by clogging up the central lines, taking Inter man by man up to the arms and forcing the Nerazzurri to go into the lane too often. But there are also the demerits of Inter who created two sensational scoring opportunities in the first 45 minutes and did not exploit them due to an error in front of goal by Dumfries and an excess of selfishness by Dimarco who did not leave the ball to Barella who could have kicked undisturbed. Not to mention the ball that fell to Lautaro and was not always served to Barella.
