SERIE A CHAMPIONSHIP – Inter win in Carpi and take the top of the standings: two goals from Jovetic

In the sign of Jovetic. Inter also wins against Carpi and the absolute protagonist is still the Montenegrin, author of a double that launches the team to the top with full points, albeit in the company of Chievo, Turin, Sassuolo and Palermo. While awaiting the last ring of the transfer market (Mancini is still waiting for three reinforcements), the Nerazzurri are enjoying their new star, without whom the victory over Atalanta would not have come and, most likely, not even yesterday's. “We took him precisely for this – the words of the Inter coach. – He is not yet in top condition, he can grow and improve a lot but goals and assists are part of his baggage ”. But the smiles end there. In fact, there is above all victory to be saved and although this is the main thing, it would be reasonable to expect something more also in terms of the game. In fact, little Carpi stood up to Inter beyond any reasonable expectation, demonstrating that heart and legs can make up for economic differences, at least in one match. “We had to close it earlier – explained Mancini. – There may be something to suffer in the defensive phase, that's why it would have been better to score the second goal immediately ".

Instead, the nerazzurri, after having closed the first half in the lead without enchanting (31', a paw from Jovetic on an assist from Guarin), were to blame for leaving Carpi alive. And when the legs began to give way, here is the same (who is missing a penalty for a foul by Murillo on Matos) gained meters, ending up finding the sensational equalizer 9 minutes from the end (dirty tap by Di Gaudio in advance of Nagatomo). But right there, with the press and fans ready for the first trial of the season, Jovetic took the chair. The coldness with which he converted the penalty (89', foul by Gabriel Silva on Guarin) is that of someone who knows how to make a difference, thus bringing in heavy points even at the end of revisitable performances. Now the ball passes to Fassone and Ausilio's feet, to whom Mancini asks for a real miracle: that of buying three players (an offensive winger, a central midfielder and a left full-back) a few hours before the gong. “I don't know if anyone will come again – sighed the coach with a touch of irony. – There is only one day left until the market is over and usually, in such a short time, you can't do much…”. Every dig at the company is not purely random, which is why today the same will be called to overtime. On the list are Eder (but yesterday's brace doesn't play in Inter's favor), Lavezzi (there is distance especially on his salary), Felipe Melo (we need to close the gap with Galatasaray) and Siqueira (same speech with the Atletico Madrid). Mancini will wait confidently (?) until 23pm, then he'll know for sure the potential of his squad. And then yes, he will start to get serious.
