Lukaku is reborn, Inzaghi smiles, Leao takes off. Naples, power of the Scudetto – Corriere.it

Lukaku’s return to Inter was a perfect operation, at least so it seemed, to the point that Professor Marotta and his assistant Piero Ausilio had been rightly celebrated. Instead, the Belgian striker’s precarious performance has also created many doubts about his stay at Inter. But the fickleness of football makes everything very vague, a brace at the right moment is enough, against Empoli and before a semi-final of the Italian Cup, handed back to Lukaku after a pardon motivated by the common sense and courage of Gabriele Gravina, the federal president , and by the ability of Inter’s legal and corporate staff who worked as a team, to once again believe in the abilities of the rediscovered striker, expressed so far in the Belgian national team, certainly not in Inter. And, as it happens, Inzaghi suddenly appears calmer, less rough in his statements (I know who’s attacking me and here it’s easy to interpret it as friendly fire… even if today he fixed it a bit by adding no culprits are being sought, we talk to the managers and we discuss together to find the right solutions), but he also promised that at the end of the season I will tell my truth and nothing but the truth: (I swear) he’s more serene, maybe he’s looking ahead, not only at Juve in the Italian Cup , but also to Milan in the Champions League.

Obviously Pioli also looks after that challenge, certainly Leao, also author of a brace: his duel with Lukaku took off. The Portuguese is a pleasure to watch, the Rossoneri fan with him in action almost always has a panorama of intense emotions, from the touch, to the run, to the times, to the one-on-one that leaves every opponent paralyzed, to the altruistic gift of the assist, at the lightning-fast change of direction that displaces, it leaves the unfortunate person confused: Leao & Lukaku two different ways of scoring, but both full of charm. Just as Raspadori’s goal in the 93rd minute is full of power, the power of the Scudetto, of a dream that is coming true: not only does it tame and punish Juve, but it makes an appointment for the greatest show after the big bang (Jovanotti sings).
