by Gianluca Luceri 26 August 2019Good, indeed excellent, the 'first' of Inter that at the San Siro, in the postponement of the first day, liquidates the newly promoted Lecce 4-0.

Form 3-5-2 for Antonio Conte, who loses Dutchman De Vrij a few minutes before the start: inside Ranocchia. Midfield with Vecino (preferred to Barella), Brozovic and Sensi, ahead of Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez. On the opposite front, Liverani has put four new signings from 1: Gabriel between the posts, Rossettini and Rispoli in defense and Lapadula in attack.

The hosts immediately take over the reins of the game, but the first ball-goal is for the Salento (14 '): restart of Falco, Handanovic goes outside the area to anticipate Lapadula, the ball remains there with the attacker who tries the lob (a little slow), neutralized by Skriniar's head in front of the line. Immediate Inter's response, with Lautaro drinking the advantage - on Candreva's cross - badly impacting the ball one step away from the goal (16 '). Five rounds of hands and Conte's team 'smashes' the match with a terrifying one-two. Brozovic signed advantage with an unstoppable right turn (21 '), the doubling is of Sensi with a crossed crossover (24'). Nerazzurri close to the trio with the Croatian Brozovic (26 '), among the most active, and with the Asamoah diagonal saved by Gabriel (32').

Shooting. Calderoni try (wide conclusion after a hand-punched exit by Handanovic) and again Sensi (right side) at the end of a good progression. At 60 'comes the 3-0: Lautaro's shot from the edge, not much to Gabriel's rejection, the winning tap-in is from former United Lukaku, who immediately celebrates his debut in the Italian league with a goal. Result in the ice for Inter, very close to poker with the ubiquitous Brozovic (64 ') and a perky Lautaro (67'). In between, the applause of the San Siro for the entry into the field of the new purchase Barella instead of Vecino. Lecce finished in ten thanks to the red card directed to Farias (76 ') for an entrataccia from behind just on Barella, his former teammate at Cagliari. The exclamation mark on the race puts Candreva at 84 'with a razor from the great distance that goes out under the intersection. Bella Inter: Conte can smile waiting for more conclusive tests.
