The growth of Conte’s team, the Juventus revolution with Pirlo, the charm of Sanremo and the leadership of Leclerc
Sweet is the long summer of Inter. He is in the semifinals of the Europa League after having leveled Leverkusen immediately and then wasted as much as usual. But as usual, it’s not over because this is a different Inter, who don’t lose their heads and know how to keep the advantage tightly, even if they snatch the ball of an already awarded penalty from their hands twice. The Nerazzurri club had not reached a European semi-final since 2010, the year of the Treble: a blessed year for the fans, cursed for all those who arrived after Mourinho, because there is no touchstone heavier than what you can at most equal, but not surpass. Conte found his Inter at the end of the season: between the championship final and the Europa League, in the last six games he has conceded only one goal. A tough, united team that defends very well and presses for ninety minutes, with some individualities of absolute level, starting with Lukaku, one of the strongest European center-forward. The midfield has grown, the condition has improved, the conviction of being a quality team has strengthened. Canceled the tensions of the post-Atalanta, now anything can happen. Where can it go? Inter are among the few European teams that do better match after match, so they can go all the way, without being afraid of anyone, including Manchester United. The long Nerazzurri summer continues.
