Sanchez, goal in Torino-Inter after the red with Liverpool: Alexis’ 5 days

Under accusation for the elimination in the Champions League on Tuesday, but also for the ball lost in the derby, the Chilean who complains because he plays little has found the winning flash in full recovery as against Juve in the Super Cup

The five days of Nino Sanchez. From the Liverpool red to the last breath goal against Toro, the Chilean confirms himself as a man allergic to half measures. The importance of his scratch in full recovery will be evaluated over time, also because for the first time in months Inter are no longer in control of their own destiny. However, the fact remains that Alexis avoided his defeat that would have had detonating effects in a weekend in which all rivals have won the championship. And, after the one at Juve that had earned him the Super Cup, he confirms himself as a master of goals to the last breath.

Red, derby and outlets

Sanchez had been given all the blame for the elimination from the Champions League after that second yellow card for that foul on the smart Fabinho who had left Inter in ten immediately after Lautaro’s goal of the illusion. He is naive, even though he would be 33 years old and a thousand battles in the legs. But it has to be shown that without that red things would have been different. The fact remains that Alexis has long been in the crosshairs of critics. The 7 million salary does not help, not even certain attitudes. After the paw in the Super Cup against Juve, on January 12, the Chilean thundered without a hint of modesty: “The champion does things that no one else does. Today it was like that. I played with Lazio, I thought I was playing this game because I was It’s not like that. I’ve never been sick, but they won’t let me play. I’ve always said I’m a lion in a cage: if they let me play I’m a monster. ” But it is true that Sanchez has too often returned broken from his trips to Chile and that he has the flaws of him also for some bloody balls lost. Above all, the one who started the comeback in the derby that revived Milan.

Character and primacy

But Sanchez is certainly not lacking in character and the ability to engrave. Especially when he crosses Turin, the team he has done the most harm in his career: 2 goals and 5 assists. And tonight it has been confirmed. Entered in the 68th minute for Lautaro, Nino brought pure energy to the final assaults. Until the sharp that he sent the grenades to hell. Because in that shot that despite Berisha’s foot kissed the internal pole before entering, there is the ringworm of the champion who wanted to rebel against adverse fate. Sanchez among other things boasts a curious record, which could only have matched Juventus McKennie if he had not already finished the season due to injury. In fact, no one has scored in the league (Cagliari, Salernitana and Turin), Coppa Italia (Empoli and Rome), Champions (Sheriff) and Supercoppa as the Chilean “caged lion”.
