Not scoring Manchester City in his game Champions League it is not a frequent occurrence. It was almost two years since 10/25/22. Even more so at “Etihad”, where last time it stuck to zero on March 9, 2022 opposite to Sporting Lisbon.
Today, it was her turn Inter to short its whole Pep Guardiola and leave Manchester with a valuable point (0-0).
Excellent performance regularly from the Nerazzurri who were careless in the final effort, but they also had him Zomer on a super night, with the Swiss stepping in whenever needed to keep the match scoreless…
The match
The first minutes of the match were recognizable, with City to take quick steps on the field and become threatening.
On the contrary, Inter he didn’t come into the match so well and was slow to… wake up, but he was constantly looked for on the counter-attack. He took out several fights with conditions, but Tiram and Taremi were characteristically late. In the 34th Haaland he made a nice pass, but the ball went wide of his net Zomer in the home team’s best phase in the first half.
In the 41st minute it was the Nerazzurri’s turn to threaten, when o Barrel gave a nice pass to Zielinskihe broke into Tiram who took the shot, but the ball went just wide. More generally, the first half had moments, but no classic opportunities and both teams went to the locker room tied without a score (0-0).
Better came in Inter in the second half and was moving the ball around nicely. In the 53rd minute, the Nerazzurri missed an unimaginable opportunity, with Simone Inzaghi to be beaten on the counter. Specifically, Mr Taremi take him out in tete-a-tete Darmian who instead of scoring went to make an assist with a heel to Barela and City’s defense caught up and kicked out!
In the 69′ the City players worked together perfectly, Fontaine took the shot from an advantageous position, but Zomer he made a big operation and kept his hearth clean. His team Guardiola they then threatened from set pieces, but they had found the Nerazzurri keeper in front of them on a very good day, who neutralized every phase.
OR Inter was moving the ball around well and trying to threaten, but wasn’t finishing phases well. The two coaches then made changes, as if nothing changed, but in vain.
Nothing changed until the final whistle and the two teams left tied 0-0 for the first matchday of his League Phase Champions League!
