Last friendly of the pre-season for theInter Of Simone Inzaghi. The Nerazzurri faced Egnatia, winning 4-2 and coming from behind twice.
Star of the race was lautaro martinez, with the Inter captain scoring twice. But his performance caused a sensation not so much for the goals scored, as for the way in which he won the penalty kick.
Lautaro simulation, unleashed social networks
In fact, on the score of 2-2, the Argentine entered the opponent’s area ball and chain: intervention on the attacker who, although not practically touched, falls to the ground claiming a penalty kick and being, moreover, satisfied by the match director. Lautaro showed up from the penalty spot, thus giving his team the advantage. An episode, that of the penalty, which has not gone unnoticed on social networks. Someone writes: “What an embarrassment!” for the evident simulation, who instead remarks: “Lautaro never denies himself. Even in friendly. Even against the fearsome Egnatia“. Someone instead points out: “They have always pointed to Cuadrado as a diver…“, some AC Milan supporters, on the other hand, are moving forward with a view to next season: “Lautaro, Barella and Cuadrado in the same team is really too much“. The Inter fans are also smiling at uswith someone ironically pointing out: “If this year with Lautaro and Cuadrado we fail to take 7/8 invented penalties I will consider it a bankruptcy season regardless“. As always, the web does not forgive, especially in front of an obvious simulation, in a friendly test without great value.
Inter-Egnatia, Lautaro Martinez and the simulation…embarrassing
