The adventure of Inter at the Club 2025 World Cup ends in the round of 16. At the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte the fluminense he won 2-0 thanks to Canvas and Hercules networksThe final forcing by Lautaro and his companions are useless: the Carioca fly to the quarterfinals and will challenge the winner of Manchester City-Al Hilal, the new team of the former Inter Simone Inzaghi. The negative impact of the Nerazzurri allowed the Brazilians to take the lead after just three minutes: they can only be left in the small area, he exploited the communication error between Sommer and Darmian. The only reaction from Chivu’s team came with Barella, but the conclusion of the Sardinian midfielder was rejected by Fabio. The Fluminense touched the doubling net at half an hour, but Xavier did not frame the door mirror. The first half finale was marked by nervousness – the technician Renato Portaluppi is warned after a couple of pushes between the greenooro bench and MkhiTaryan – and with the great heat, the lightning alert and the implementation of the protocol that a few days ago led to the suspension of Benfica -Chelsea.
In the second half Chivu attempted to shake the quite tic -off, from Sebastiano Esposito’s feet the opportunity not exploited by De Vrij was born: from a few steps the Dutch defender kicked to the side. The punishment of Dimarco after a few minutes is dangerous, summer on a reversal in front avoided the 2-0 by saving on the shot from Arias. Esposito himself built one of the two best opportunities, Lautaro on the first occasion was unable to overcome Fabio, immediately after the Argentine striker he hit the internal pole. In full recovery Hercules, launched on the counterattack, found the Diagonal Rasoterra for the 2-0, the conclusion of Dimarco is useless who hit the crossing of the posts.
