Inter outclassed and demolished by Fiorentina: there is a precedent that scares Simone Inzaghi
Dramma Inter a Firenze: il precedente che spaventa Inzaghi – SerieAnews
The recovery of the 14th day of Serie A ended as perhaps no one imagined: Fiorentina, in full emergency, demolished Inter with a peremptory 3-0. It was a success without appeal for the team coached by Raffaele Palladino on its third consecutive victory.
It seemed in the balance, the bench shaky due to a series of negative results, and instead the Viola once again engaged the high gears. Against the Nerazzurri only 13 movement players at the coach’s disposal, due to the unavailability of all new signings as the rules state. Athletes on the field more than enough to give a memorable night, definitely one to remember to the people of the Franchi.
In a match where the dedications were all for Edoardo Bove, the match that most represents what happened, stealing the show was Moise Kean: mister 18 million euros spent by the Viola last summer, probably 18 million regrets for Juve who sold him perhaps lightly.

In the head-to-head match with Lautaro Martinez, it was the Fiorentina bomber who took the lion’s share of the action, zeroing in on Inter’s prey without mercy. A success that also allowed Napoli to celebrate: in fact, the Nerazzurri failed to hook Conte’s men and thus remain second in the standings, -3 behind Lukaku and co.

In short, the favored Inter fell at the Franchi against all odds: as just mentioned, in fact, the Viola had their staff reduced to the bone but all this was not enough for Inter. And now Simone Inzaghi is definitely trembling. Let’s be clear, the Nerazzurri are still considered the strongest team in the league, the one best equipped to win the Scudetto and the favorite to triumph at the end of the season.
Failure to catch up with Napoli, however, prevents the Nerazzurri from writing their own destiny with their own hands: first of all, they will need to get a result in Naples next March 2, and then it will be necessary not to miss another shot. No small feat, considering how tired Lautaro and his teammates appeared, almost on their legs.
And in the minds of the Nerazzurri coach and fans, the thought cannot help but go back three seasons to April 27, 2022. Remember? For Nerazzurri fans it is impossible to forget that date, because it is perhaps only one step below May 5, 2002, the mother of all defeats in Inter’s history.
Inter, il pensiero al Bologna ed al 2022: quel recupero “maledetto”
On that day, April 27, 2022, the rematch of the match between Bologna and Inter, originally scheduled for January 6, 2022 but postponed due to the numerous cases of Covid-19 in the Emilian lineup, was staged at the Dall’Ara. Well, the postponement was placed between the 34th and 35th day, on the final rush of the championship turning that match into decisive for the Scudetto.

Milan, in fact, was first in the standings with a two-point lead over Inter, Inzaghi’s team had in its sights a counter-takeover. At the Dall’Ara, however, a thrilling ending was staged. Perisic’s almost immediate goal, then the equalizer by Arnautovic – then the Felsinei’s bomber – on the half-hour mark with an imperious break and the winning goal by Sansone on a clamorous duck by Radu, deployed in goal in place of Handanovic.
Inter lost that match and also the Scudetto, celebrated by Milan in the last round of the championship with Sassuolo. The current situation is quite different from 2022. In fact, we are on the 23rd day and there are still 15 more to go, with as many as 45 points available and, as mentioned, there is still the direct return clash to be played.
However, Inter failed to hook up with Napoli, and it is now the Azzurri who are inevitably in an advantageous position. We will see if the partenopei – with Milan three years ago – will also be able to take advantage of Inter’s gift. Nerazzurri fans, meanwhile, are seeing specters of 2022 again.
