Lukaku y dos goles del
exmadridista dieron a los ‘nerazzurri’ un triunfo a medio gas antes de la
decisiva jornada de Champions
El Inter solventó sin
problemas su partido ante el Bolonia (3-1) antes de afrontar el miércoles su
continuidad en la Champions League en un cara o cruz contra el Shakhtar Donetsk
en San Siro del que puede depender también la clasificación del Real Madrid.
Una vez más Romelu Lukaku fue decisivo de nuevo con su 12º gol de la temporada y
Achraf Hakimi con su doblete cerró un triunfo que mantiene al equipo de Antonio
Conte en el segundo lugar de la Serie A y le acerca a 2 puntos del líder Milan,
que mañana visita a la Sampdoria.
Alexis, titular y Lautaro,
reservado
Conte reservó a Lautaro Martínez
y alineó a Alexis Sánchez en punta junto a Lukaku, mientras el también
exazulgrana Arturo Vidal, baja el martes ante el Borussia M’gladbach por
sanción, también salió de inicio ante el Bolonia de Sinisa Mihajlovic.
El Inter no necesitó emplearse
a fondo para encadenar por primera vez en la temporada tres triunfos. Lukaku,
que marcó dos goles vitales al Gladbach (2-3), abrió el marcador en un centro
de Ivan Perisic (16’). El belga falló en su primer intento de volea, pero
recogió el rechace y colocó el balón en la red. Es su octavo tanto liguero, que
se suma a los 4 que lleva en Europa.
Con la cabeza en la Champions
El Inter, con la cabeza en la
Champions, bajó el ritmo y el Bolonia ganó metros pero, incapaz de generar
peligro, no le puso en aprietos. En cambio, cada acelerón de Lukaku sembró el
pánico en el área visitante, como en el minuto 35, cuando Lukasz Skorupski
evitó el 2-0 en su mano a mano tras pase de Alexis Sánchez en una contra letal.
Justo antes del descanso
Marcelo Brozovic puso un gran balón a Achraf, que controló en posición de 9 y
batió por bajo a Skorupski con la zurda (45’).
La segunda mitad transcurrió
sin grandes cambios. Lukaku conectó con Alexis, cuyo disparó blocó Skorupski
(56’), antes de que Mihajlovic introdujera un triple cambio que le dio
resultado inmediato. Emanuel Vignato, uno de los recién entrados, redujo
distancias al fusilar un balón muerto al segundo palo (67’).
Otro gol de Achraf
El encuentro necesitaba este
gol para salir de la monotonía pero Achraf se encargó de acabar con la emoción
apenas unos minutos después al demostrar en otra acción su vocación ofensiva.
El excarrilero derecho del
Real Madrid recibió de Arturo Vidal en mitad de campo y prodigó una diagonal en
carrera a la contra que culminó de nuevo con la zurda ajustando el balón al
poste (70’).
Tras este gol, Conte retiró a
Vidal, Lukaku y Achraf y el Inter puso definitivamente la mirada en ese crucial
partido ante el Shakhtar.
