Inter: Dzeko in goal with Bosnia to warn the competition

The Nerazzurri’s market operations risk reducing the space for the Bosnian, who, however, with the comeback against Finland has brought his total haul to 21 goals this season

“The emblem on the heart is important”, writes Edin Dzeko on Instagram around midnight, shortly after the amazing performance with his national team. His heart is not lacking, among the many qualities that must still be recognized at the age of 36. Here, age can be seen as a limit in the future but, after a 21-goal season between Inter and Bosnia-Herzegovina, the signal for the departmental colleagues is clear: it is early for a sunset.

Highlights

Last night, at the Bilino Polje in Zenica, the Nerazzurri striker ended his season with a brace that earned him a comeback against Finland: Miralem Pjanic’s advantage on a penalty, white-blue reversal with Teemu Pukki and Benjamin Kallmann and finally space for ‘Edin-show for the three points in the Nations League, up to the 3-2 final. At 29 ‘the momentary equalizer and at 58’ the decisive goal, splendid: ball between the feet well out of the area on the left, effective slalom to return and right to the low corner crossing lethally the goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky.

In shape

A similar performance reminds everyone that we can talk about the best Lautaro Martinez ever, the imminent arrival of Paulo Dybala and the hoped-for return of Romelu Lukaku, but the good Dzeko should not be put aside lightly. On the other hand, at the time of his arrival at Inter he was not expected as the undisputed starter and instead held up the weight of Simone Inzaghi’s attack for long stretches, he scored 17 goals for the Nerazzurri and experienced a physical decline only in the last month. . In short, a path that at 36 is not often seen for an active player. Obviously in the event of the arrival of Dybala and Lukaku, for him and Joaquin Correa the minutes would risk being reduced, but a look at the show in Bosnian shirt brings back to the reality of a Dzeko who still has so much to give, than relegate to the bench or see elsewhere. it would be at high risk regret. Edin has heart, but not only. And he still shines in the sky, far from sunset.
