In the name of three. Like the goals scored, like the points taken away by Pescara. The condition is not yet optimal, but Inter have already shown important things, which put them rightfully in competition with Juve for the scudetto. The match at the Adriatic could have taken a different turn if in the 11th minute the referee Guide had punished a foul by Zanetti on Weiss with a penalty, but after the fear, the goals arrived. First Sneijder, served perfectly by Milito, then the Prince himself, sent in goal by the debutant Cassano. The first from the Bari player, lined up surprisingly by Stramaccioni, was convincing: his physical condition is what it is, but his feet are also the same as always. The terrible one-two brought an excellent Pescara to its knees, all pressing and speed, several times dangerous near Castellazzi. Then, in the second half, when the pace slowed down, the Nerazzurri technique made the difference even more. Guarin and Milito missed two goals already scored, then the Prince churned out the second assist of the evening, this time for Coutinho, who was thus able to celebrate.
“We are happy – he said Weighmen at the press conference – even if there are still things to work on. It was very important to start well in such a hot stadium and with such a strong-willed Pescara. Cassano? I decided to start him after the first training session, I've always had clear ideas. The market? The change of a first striker is missing, but he must be a player who is functional to our ideas otherwise I'd rather stay that way. We will be vigilant between now and August 31st, this market session has shown that there can be twists and turns”.
Operations are not closed yet, especially outgoing. Maicon, who wasn't called up yesterday, is ever closer to joining Mourinho in Madrid, even if Mancini, another of his former coaches, hasn't yet raised the white flag. Also Julio Cesar he will soon leave Inter to marry at QPR, but first we need to find an agreement on the severance pay.
