Juventus takes revenge on Inter, wins in the first semifinal of the Italian Cup
Juventus took revenge on Inter for the loss in Serie A two weeks ago by beating Antonio Conte’s team at Guiseppe Meaza. Ronaldo was the creator of Juventus’ victory where he scored two goals, one from the penalty spot and another after an error by Inter’s defense.
Juventus defeated Inter in the first match of the semifinals of the Italian Cup.
It was a very interesting match with many chances from both teams, but in the end Juventus wins and returns to Turin in the lead and closer to the final of the Italian Cup.
However, everything for this match will be decided at the Allianz in Turin after a week where the second semifinal match will be played.
The first half started much better for Inter, who several times attacked Buffon’s gate. The Nerazzurri were the first to take the lead.
A well executed counterattack by Barella made it possible for Lautaro Martinez to score in the 9th minute.
Juventus would be back in the game and attacking the Inter goal more. The score was tied after a questionable penalty awarded to Juventus following a crash in the Cuardado area.
Cristiano Ronaldo would score from the penalty spot in the 26th minute. After the draw, Inter somehow got upset especially in the defensive ward.
This is where a mistake in the black defense would take place, which Cristiano Ronaldo would use to score in the 35th minute.
The second half was good for both teams. Both Inter and Juventus had their chances to score but did not use them properly.
The finalist of the Italian Cup final will be known next week where Juventus will have another 90 minutes to ensure the passage to the final of this competition.
