Inter, Federico Dimarco replies to social criticism

The exultation of Inter's outside player Federico Dimarco after the missed penalty by Verona striker Thomas Henry in this afternoon&#39s challenge has sparked controversy, social and otherwise. Soì Dimarco himself è wanted to intervene in the first person, with a post on Instagram.

"Did I exult? Sì I cheered and a lot. Without insulting anyone, without rude gestures, I rejoiced so much for the victory, for the 'scare' and for the danger escaped. È sports and è beautiful for that too. Unfortunately è also harsh and cruel to those on the other side”.

“And I am sorry if all this joy instinctively exploded in front of Henry who had just missed the penalty and I cheered in front of him. From the gut, I’m honest. Someone will say that it is not è a beautiful thing and they are probably right, but I did not want to offend anyone so much è true that at the final whistle, even before celebrating with my teammates, I went to hug him”.

“And the same thing I did in the locker room after the game with my former teammates. Becauseé this è sport. You win, you lose, you cheer, you cry and at the end you hug. To the moralists I say: go ahead and criticize me but watch everything that happens on the field not just what suits you, thank you".
