Beginning of an article

Just two weeks ago, Inter beat Juventus in the league in a one-sided game, which greatly hurt the old lady’s championship struggles. Tonight (Tuesday), it seems that the revenge of the Bianconeri, who defeated ex-Antonio Conte at San Siro, 1: 2, as part of the first game of the Italian Cup semi-final.

Since that loss to Narazzi in the league, it seems that Juventus have managed to recover and tonight they have achieved their fifth consecutive victory in all competitions, hoping that the positive momentum will give them a boost going forward in Serie A as well.

Inter came into the game without two of their attacking anchors, Romulo Lukaku and Ashraf Hakimi, and at least at first it seemed to not bother her. Gianluigi Buffon rose to his 1,100 appearances in career, team and national team, but already in the ninth minute he showed he was far from the ability that branded him as one of the greatest in history, with a terrible drop after a kick by Lautro Martinez.

But unlike the same loss in the league, this time Andrea Pirlo’s team certainly came into the game and showed not bad ability. And who has been her man, as in quite a few cases since landing in Turin, is of course Cristiano Ronaldo, who equalized with a penalty in the 26th minute, and within nine minutes took advantage of mistakes by Alessandro Bastoni and Samir Handanovic to set up a white-black turnaround. For the Portuguese, it was also his eighth duo this season in all competitions, the most in the top five leagues. In total, CR7 has scored 22 goals in 23 games. Not bad for a player who will be 36 in three days.

Now, both teams will return to the league, with Juventus hosting Roma in the next round, and Inter playing for Fiorentina. On Tuesday they will meet well in Turin, who will decide whether the old lady will return to the final after last year’s loss, or whether Inter will return to the standings for the first time since 2011. At the same time, the two will look to the corresponding semi-final between Napoli and Atlanta tomorrow.


the progress of the game
After opening relatively evenly, a nazorous outburst in the 9th minute turned into a Barla wide pass to Lautro Martinez, the striker with a flat kick, and Buffon only managed to touch the ball on the way to0: 1 to Inter. Inter’s great attack, and a bad reaction from the 43-year-old Italian, who does not mention the legend we knew. Juventus broke down after an early deficit and continued to attack, and in the 25th minute they received a penalty, after Ashley Young tripped Quadrado in the box, and after a short VAR check, Cristiano Ronaldo went to the penalty spot and sent the ball into the net on the way to1: 1.

Juventus continued to mature and so did Cristiano Ronaldo, who in the 35th minute snatched a ball from Bastogne and took advantage of a bad exit from Handanovic, to roll the ball out of the box to the net, and set up a reversal and1: 2 Juventus. The old lady continued to attack towards Handanovich’s goal, but was not sharp enough and the result was maintained even on the way down to the break.

The Juventinian momentum continued in the second half as well, and in the 55th minute Handanovic saved a Bernardski kick. Less than two minutes later Alexis Sanchez took advantage of a mistake in the zebras defense and kicked in front of an empty net, but Demirel was nimble and saved from the line.
The host did not give up and in the 69th minute Darmian squeezed a save from Buffon. The range continued with kicks from Lautro and Barla, but Inter were not accurate enough, and the result was maintained until the end – 1: 2 Juventus.
