Inter gets into the fight by beating the Sheriff at San Siro

The Inter de Milan, with goals from the Bosnian Edin dzeko, the Chilean Arturo vidal and the dutch Stefan De Vrij, defeated 3-1 this Tuesday at Sheriff Tiraspol, who came to San Siro after beating Real Madrid and the Shakhtar, and returned to get into the fight for the round pass in group D of the Champions League.

The team of Simone inzaghi, who barely added a point after the first two days, without being able to score a goal, placed third, with four points, to two of the two leaders, the Real Madrid and the Sheriff himself, with the Shakhtar Donetsk which closes the classification with a point.

The “Nerazzurri” team, tonight with black elastic, met again with a victory at home in the Champions League after a two-year wait, as the last victory dated back to 2019, against the Dortmund with Antonio Conte on the bench.

Before 45,000 spectators in San siro, it was Dzeko who collapsed the visiting wall in the 34th minute, by signing a high-class goal, with a volley with his left foot, after a corner kick hung by Federico Dimarco and previously touched head by Arturo vidal, for the first time as a starter this season. His target broke the equality, after the visiting goal made three worthwhile interventions.

Dumitru Celeadnic, substitute for Greek Georgios Athanasiadis, the great hero of the Bernabéu triumph, anticipated twice with good starts to the Dutchman Denzel Dumfries and to Dzeko, and made another excellent save from a shot from Dimarco. But he could do nothing before the volley of Dzeko, who celebrated his first European goal with Inter.

The Sheriff, which had started aggressively, before succumbing to the technical superiority of the Inter, continued with the style that gave him so many dividends in this Champions League and for a moment came to savor a new feat.

It was in minute 52, when the Luxembourgish Sebastien thill surprised the Slovenian meta Samir handanovic with a good direct foul. He celebrated his second goal in this Champions League, all in legendary stadiums. In fact, before this goal at San Siro, he had scored at the Bernabéu against Real Madrid.

But the visitors’ illusion lasted just five minutes, as Inter once again locked up their rival in their half of the field and punished him with two goals in the space of thirteen minutes, the work of Vidal and De Vrij.

The Chilean scored 2-1 in 57 with a powerful left foot after receiving an elegant assist from Dzeko and once again celebrated a goal in the Champions League after more than four years of waiting. The last one dated back to April 2017, when he played in the Bayern Munich.

His target, the second this season, left the Sheriff touched, who conceded at 67 on De Vrij’s 3-1, a pass from Dumfries.

Inter had no problems, in which the Chilean Alexis Sánchez also had minutes to manage his comfortable margin and the advantage could be even more bulky, if Perisic did not crash two powerful shots to the wood.
