‘Inter no longer scores’: lack of goal favors Felipe Caicedo’s debut

A reality that has not been seen since February 2019, Inter Milan’s worrying lack of goals, led to the debut of Ecuadorian striker Felipe Caicedo with the Negriazules on Friday. However, the tricolor could not prevent Simone Inzaghi’s team from drawing at Genoa (0-0) in Serie A in Italy.

Caicedo entered the field of the Luigi Ferraris stadium in the 87th minute to replace defender Danilo D’Ambrosio, a tactical modification of Inzaghi to get the winning goal in the outcome of the match for the twenty-seventh day of the Italian championship.

The final strategy against the Genoese, owners of Felipao’s pass, was unsuccessful and the Milan team reached their third game without scoring a goal.

La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The renowned Italian outlet added: “Inter no longer scores. And when he does, the goal comes after endless attempts and incursions into the area. Bad luck and chance are in between, but appealing to Danilo D’Ambrosio’s crossbar or some mistake with the door wide open doesn’t help any kind of analysis”.

Meanwhile, the sports section of Yahoo! He pointed out: “He (Inzaghi) left Lautaro Martínez on the bench this time and put Alexis Sánchez in from the beginning, but it was not the solution either.
