Inter-Cagliari 2-2, goodbye to Juventus’ Serie A points record. Scudetto in the derby against Milan if…
Inter settles for a 2-2 draw in the postponed 32nd round match at San Siro against Cagliari (twice ahead with Thuram and Calhanoglu, twice joined first by Shomurodov and then by Viola). He doesn’t ‘take advantage’ of the misstep accused by Milan a few hours earlier (3-3 on the Sassuolo pitch, Devil with his head in the Europa League second leg against Roma) which could have projected her to +16 over her cousinsputting them in a position to play the derby on Monday 22 April with 2 results out of 3 in favor with a view to a championship celebration at the referee’s final whistle. Instead, the lead remains 14 points (83 to 69) and to win the second star at the Devil’s home Lautaro Martinez and his teammates will have to win the derby (it would be the sixth consecutive derby for Inzaghi’s team against Pioli’s).
Meanwhile, the 2-2 draw against Cagliari gives a verdict: Inter will not be able to surpass the Serie A points record set by Antonio Conte’s Juventus in the 2012-2013 season at 102 (even if he wins them all from here to the end he will be able to reach a maximum of 101). A small disappointment, but the countdown to great joy has now started: the second star on Inter’s shirts.
Inter scudetto beating Milan. Inzaghi: “Second star in the derby? We would be happy”
In the derby we will need to win for the Scudetto. How much would winning the second star on Monday add prestige to the Nerazzurri’s progress from 0 to 10? “We would be happy. We will prepare well for Monday. Tonight we wanted to win but we will prepare a great derby to do it in the best way. If we succeed well, otherwise there will be other matches. We will play with a team that has made an excellent journey and wants to give its best in front of its fans.” said Simone Inzaghi at the end of Inter’s draw against Cagliari.
Even in the worst case scenario of defeat against Milan, 5 points would be enough for Lautaro and his teammates to reach the tricolor finish line: in fact, the Rossoneri can at most reach 87 points (in the event of an equal number of points, direct matches do not count, but with a view to the Scudetto there is a play-off).
