Inter-Betis Player Ratings: Stones and Pavard Show Impact, Bonny Lags
The match played in Bari offered valuable insights for coach Cristian Chivu ahead of the home game against Monza, scheduled for Saturday and marking the first matchday of the championship.
Provedel will present a challenge to Martinez, while Pavard, Stones, and Bastoni are already in top form. However, the Englishman is expected to start from the bench.
Bisseck and Bovio are making a case for starting positions as Akanji is not yet at his peak. Barella remains a certainty in midfield, with Calhanoglu and Zielinski improving their form, and Stankovic and Sucic also ready.
Dimarco and Diouf have demonstrated their qualities. Luis Henrique did not perform at his best, and Bonny was too flashy and less effective than Pio Esposito. Carlos Augusto is not yet in perfect condition, making mistakes that the real Carlos would never make. Mkhitaryan continues to be a useful asset, especially with his experience.
Young Iddrissou's performance is difficult to judge, having played only a few minutes. Lautaro's entrance was met with an ovation from the crowd, and he ran across the entire pitch for the team, embodying the spirit of a true leader and captain.
