The last victory of Inter Milan in Santiago Bernabéu dates from 1967, 54 years ago. More than half a century of unbeaten Madridista before the neerozzurri. A statistic that made the miracle that those of Simone Inzaghi were still more difficult on Tuesday. A triumph that places them as a first group and that complicated life to Real Madrid. It did not happen, those of Carlo Ancelotti avoided the coconuts of the eighth (City, Liverpool, Bayern ...) and can sleep more calm to the February tiers.
"We wanted to avoid stronger equipment, but we know that when you go, you have to earn everything if you want to be a champion," said Imperial Modric at 36 years old and disputing 90 minutes per second consecutive match: "You do not have to look at the years, just The performance. Each time the years are sometimes noticed, the races prolong, and I feel as if I had less than 30, "he joked the 'twenty-race'.
It was a hot match, worthy of the European Cup. With some tangana, tension and an expulsion. Kroos scored goal number 25 with Madrid, the first on white, with the left and from outside the box. He both gave peace of mind to a merengue group that was surpassed at times, desperate ancelotti by some errors at the exit of the visitor pressure. "Sometimes we do not press too up too much ... we are fine, we are comfortable ... we have no means to defend in the open field. Sometimes it is not that aesthetic, but we are doing very well," explained the Italian, while Modric assured that "Maybe we would like to have more possession, but it was the Mister's plan and we are happy."
The coach repeated the formation of the duel against the royal, with Vinicius and Rodrygo in the bands, electric, and a Jovic that took place, with a militan, the greatest applause of the night.
The boiling point of the shock was the found between Barella and Militao, who thought more than one in a small campal battle. Italian and Brazilian fought for a ball near the band and the arm was loaded, finishing the often transalpine on the floor against the fence. The action did not seem to go to more, but Barella stirred from the ground and released a dangerous punch to the knee of Militao, which reacted, faced with him.
Felix Brych solved it with a yellow defense and a direct red to the inter. The harrow, while, I said goodbye to Barella and poured Arturo Vidal and Alexis Sánchez, Exjugadores del Barcelona who jumped into the lawn. "Barella reacted ugly," said Modric: "Militao only wanted to protect the ball, Barella got angry and reacted badly, he did not have to have done it."
Having the rival a man less and using him the tie to be first group, Ancelotti chatted with his son Davide and began to think about Derbi against Atlético. "Of course Modric at the age of him has to rest, now he has five days until the next game, but he takes care of himself very well at home, he has a quiet life," Ancalotti explained.
Camavinga entered by Casemiro and, once, Valverde, Mariano and Asensio by Kroos, Jovic and Rodrygo. In the field, Vinicius continued, physically superior to colleagues and rivals and squeezed by the technician during this tourmalet to which the final mountain remains.
Asensio goal for 2-0 served for Carletto to rethink the Brazilian. There were ten minutes left and Hazard entered, 100 million star theoretical. He did not play since November 6 at the ray. Some beep, some applause ... almost indifference. And Vinicius came out, with the Bernabéu surrendered to his right eyes. How things change.
The day of this Wednesday will leave possible rivals for Madrid in the eighth draw next Monday: PSG and Sporting are already second, such as Atlético and the Inter, although the teams of the same country and the same group can not be facing each other . It remains to be discovered which sets accompany that Bombo 2: Juventus or Chelsea, Atalanta or Villarreal, Lille / Salzburg / Seville ... and Benfica or Barça, which will depend on what happens in Munich. If the Portuguese passes, they would be another rival of the Port Madridista and would minimize the possibilities of crossing with the PSG or Juventus / Chelsea, the great coconuts: "I do not care about Bayern-Barça. I'm going to see the matches because I like , They will be very interesting, but the important thing is that we are first. I do not worry about the raffle, the goal is to win the title, "Ancelotti warned.
I do not care, I'm going to see the games because I like them. They will be very interesting, but the important thing is that we are first. I do not care much about the raffle, whatever happens, the goal is to win the title.
