Substitute Lukaku finally made the breakthrough to give Inter a slim advantage to defend in Portugal.

Inter Milan legend Beppe Bergomi believes Simone Inzaghi is doing a good job in a situation where the Nerazzurri are forced to sell a big name player.

“Italian football have to have the ideas and to be prepared to take a risk on some players who are yet to explode, but where you can see potential. Now that you know that Skriniar is leaving, you have to do be ready and do well to replace him. Then if Suning decide to no longer continue and sell the club for the good of Inter, then that is OK. Sometimes – and I’m speaking generally here – you try to hang on to players by force, who then end up complicating your dealings on the transfer market. It is evident for everyone to see that the ownership is undergoing difficulties but are trying to handle them in the best way possible.” The change of pace and acceleration is fundamental. But for the rest can you possibly say to this team? “Given I don’t know the situations, it makes me feel sorry. “There will never be proof to counter that argument. “He is a professional who has made his decision. I have gotten to known Milan, he is a good lad, timid, serious. Unfortunately every summer, Inter have to sacrifice someone, we saw it with Lukaku, Hakimi and Perisic.
