Inter fell 2-0 to lowly Lazio and were mathematically eliminated from Champions League qualification after the loss.
Handanovic (4.5): Got put on his back by Klose in the 6th minute, getting chipped in the process. Could do nothing about Candreva’s upper 90 penalty in the 85th minute.
D’Ambrosio (5): Got down the wings early trying to create chances for the forward players but to no avail. Was quiet, but when challenged, did his job diligently.
Miranda (5): Could not get to closing down Klose in the 7th minute but otherwise had a decent game. Blocked a shot in the 79th minute that was sure to get past Handanovic.
Murillo (3.5): Pushed up to try and take the ball away from Klose only to leave a major hole in the defense that was then exposed for the 1-0. Red carded in the 83rd and gave up a penalty in the process by fouling Keita in the box, which Candreva then converted for the 2-0.
Nagatomo (5.5): Pushed forward often, constantly in battle with Candreva down the left side of the pitch. Subbed off in the 79th for Palacio in hopes Inter could pull a goal back.
Medel (4): Awfully quiet first half for the Chilean. Did not cover Murillo when the Colombian went forward to try and stop Klose from venturing any further which then led to Lazio’s early goal. Was put under pressure by the Lazio midfield constantly. Often finding himself passing backward. Wandered around the midfield like he didn’t know what he was doing. Subbed off for Biabiany in the 55th minute.
Kondogbia (6): Was a decent outlet in the midfield. Held on to the ball during many challenges and provided a wonderfully weighted lobbed pass to Jovetic that would’ve been a beautiful assist had Marchetti been beaten by the Montenegrin.
Brozovic (5): Very mobile in the center of Inter’s midfield but could not seem to get any attack or decent string of passes going.
Jovetic (4.5): Passes went astray, shots hit the keeper in the chest- was not dangerous at all. The Montenegrin was subbed off in the 72nd for Eder.
Perisic (5.5): Active night for the Croatian even though nothing went his or his side’s way. Always pressed, always found a way forward into dangerous positions down his wing.
Icardi (4.5): Had a nice cross in the 74th minute and a flicked header to the far post that Jovetic couldn’t extend his leg far out enough to finish a few minutes earlier. Other than that, this was another game where the young captain went ghost. In hindsight, he should’ve been supported more than what was provided, but it does not change his sluggish movement off the ball. Spent more time looking at the skies with his hands together in prayer than getting into a better position for a second time cross.
Substitutes:
Biabiany (4): Came on in the 55th minute. Not impactful whatsoever.
Eder (4.5): Came on for Jovetic once it seemed the Inter front line had seemingly already conceded the defeat in the 72nd as did he.
Palacio (6): Inter’s liveliest substitution since coming on in the 79th even though his comrades had already given up. His teammates could learn a thing or two.
