In a busy week for Inter in which they became champions of the Italian Super Cup against Juventus and ratified their leadership in Serie A with one game less, it was time to catch up with the knockout stages of the Coppa Italia, in which I returned to play at home facing Empoli. coach Simone Inzaghi opted to make some changes in the starting team and opted for a 100% Argentine forward with the presence of Lautaro Martínez and Joaquín Correa, on a day in which both were ratified and summoned for the double date of Elimiantorias with Argentina.However, shortly after the start of the match was going to arrive bad news, that turns on alerts. There were barely two minutes left in the game when the “Tucu” received from behind and withstood the pressure of Romagnoli, who ended up riding in the espald, forcing the former Estudiantes and causing pain in his left leg.
At that moment, Correa dropped on the field of play of Giuseppe Meazza and, through tears, received medical attention that confirmed at least a contracture for the attacker. Receiving the support of his teammates, he withdrew from the field and gave rise to Alexis Sánchez setting off alarms. If a major injury (tear) is confirmed, the striker would miss a new presence with the Argentine National Team, where he has great consideration. Without Lionel Messi in the team, many possibilities open up for the rest of the striker’s men and this would be a shame for the Tucuman. As for his present at Inter, the neroazzurro has a series of important meetings ahead, since in addition to seeking the passage to the quarterfinals of the Coppa Italia, in February a string of matches is coming that includes the classic against Milan, a crossing with Napoli, pursuer in Serie A, and the first leg of the knockout stages of the Champions League against Liverpool, in Italy.
