It’s nice to win big, and not only did we win, but we confirmed their supremacy in the last 4 games in which they resigned themselves to defeat due to an inelastic score. And we play football.
The match began truncated as Renato wanted, fighting for ball possession, fouls and complaints, until a good move on the left by the attacker, calmly defended by Rochet.
From then on Inter put the ball on the ground, Roger lowers Rômulo a little and places Bruno Henrique in the central circle, and the dominance is total. Inter suffocates their rival by recovering all the balls in the center, with the defenders playing forward. Renato tried to repeat the strategy of other matches in which he had technical inferiority, focusing on long balls and speed, but the marking was careful and blocked the attempts.
We simply didn’t turn the superiority into goals, like other times, with Borré reflexively missing a goal and Wesley making poor choices on the pass or decisive shot, or stopping after a good save from their goalkeeper. The first half ended with the feeling that we could and should have won.
At the start of the second half Wesley was excellent in an action where we had numerical superiority at the edge of the area, and the general superiority continued across the pitch.
The goal came with a well-studied action, full of movement and with an absolutely unusual pass from Alan Patrick, culminating in a beautiful shot from Bernabei and a deflection, providential or otherwise, from Borré, which do justice to what the the game was about.
Renato got desperate and started to pile up the attackers, but curiously, and due to a mistake, he didn’t put Soteldo on Bernabei, who was unfairly booked.
Roger lacked the bench, with the injury of Bruno Henrique, who had a great game, he had to add an attacking midfielder. Luckily Fernando was on the pitch to adjust the midfield, but we were a bit vulnerable with so many of their attackers, and we didn’t make much use of the spaces, and I mean we didn’t take advantage of much because we didn’t convert the attacks we had.
Even so, it was only about isolated and individual actions of the opponent, or crosses into the area, where we have a positioning deficit of both defenders, and not even the entry of a third party corrected this. In any case, Rochet was very safe.
The whole team played a good game, I think no player fell short of expectations, and some concerns, such as Clayton, Vitão, Rômulo and Bruno Henrique, did not materialize, as they played confident and very good games, even surprising. .
Bernabei and Wesley were the protagonists, making the left side of the attack a sector with a lot of speed and dribbling, difficult to mark.
The refereeing didn’t get in the way, even though Bernabei’s yellow card wasn’t even a foul and the attack was promising. He did not give in to his rival’s pressure and was not the protagonist, as is his custom.
Now is the time to take advantage of the chance to play against the probable reserves of the next opponents and climb up the rankings.
