DBasia.news – Inter Milan coach, Antonio Conte, admitted that he had not spoken with Romelu Lukaku regarding the incident with Zlatan Ibrahimovic. However, Conte was satisfied as Lukaku remained focused throughout the match.
In a match that took place at the Giuseppe Meazza, Wednesday (27/1) am, WIB, Inter defeated AC Milan with a score of 2-1. One of the Nerazzurri wins was scored by Lukaku.
The attacker was angered at the end of the first half as he was provoked by Ibrahimovic’s words. He even had to be calmed down by his team mates so as not to cross the line.
But Lukaku seemed able to quickly forget the incident and focus back on the match. He was even able to coolly take a penalty to equalize in the 71st minute.
This is the opposite of what happened to Ibrahimovic. Although he scored a goal, the Swedish striker finally had to be sent off for receiving two yellow cards at the start of the second half.
One of Ibrahimovic’s yellow cards was given due to a feud with Lukaku. This has made Conte compliment his player.
“To be honest, I was a player once, so I know that during a game emotions can flare up and situations happen when you are angry. The important thing is to keep it in the right dimensions, “Conte said after the match to RAI Sport.
“It’s nice to see Romelu so concentrated and focused. Ibra has a determination to be a winner, a fighter, and I think Romelu grew in that aspect. I’m just happy to see him excited. “
Indirectly. Lukaku emerged victorious in his feud with Ibrahimovic. He is able to control his emotions and lead his team to win.
This proves that Lukaku is maturing as a striker. Conte certainly needed his contribution to bring Inter to the championship ladder.
