Inter, Simone Inzaghi has an extra asset
First goal of the season for the 34-year-old Nerazzurri striker
He will turn 35 next Dec. 19, yet on the pitch he plays with the enthusiasm of a young boy. Inzaghi decided to put his faith in him, deploying him as a starter in the Champions League match against Salzburg, and the Chilean responded.
His was the goal that unlocked the match. An important performance, so much so that when he was substituted, the San Siro crowd applauded him convincingly. He could not have chosen a better time to score his first goal of the season.
In the post-match press conference, Inzaghi è complimented Sanchez: "He wanted to return to Inter at all costs and we wanted him. We all know him. We know he canò score at any time. I am happy that he scored goals. He deserves it for what he does at every training session". With Arnautovic in the box due to injury, having a Sanchez in this condition è a luxury for Inzaghi.
