Inter Milan furious after late drama vs Lazio – What happened?

Tension rises at Appiano Gentile after missed opportunity

The atmosphere around Appiano Gentile was tense after the draw with Lazio, which in extremis prevented Inter Milan from overtaking Napoli at the top of the table.

"Today the mood is dark. Inter Milan is furious about the late penalty that led to the equalizer, and thus the missed opportunity to surpass Napoli. 

Inter Milan is angry about the chance they missed and the refereeing decisions—this is why no one spoke after the match yesterday," said Matteo Barzaghi on Sky Sport, summarizing the mood within the Nerazzurri camp after the Lazio draw, which denied Inzaghi’s team first place in the standings.

"Now Inter Milan must regain belief ahead of Friday's match against Como, just a short distance from Appiano. 

It's a match Inzaghi's team cannot afford to get wrong, in order to avoid regrets. If there’s one team that hasn’t given up and always found a response, it’s Inter Milan—as seen against Bayern and Barcelona," the Sky reporter at Pinetina added.

Inter Milan players leave retreat in silence and disappointment

“Clearly, everyone was very disappointed and angry. Even as they left the training camp, players had grim faces and little desire to smile. 

Beyond the refereeing issues—which have angered Inter Milan not just yesterday but in recent weeks as well—it remains a massive missed opportunity. 

Just minutes from the end, Inter Milan was there, within reach of the Scudetto, which would have meant achieving something phenomenal.

What remains now is the desire to finish the season in the best possible way. Inter Milan must remain strong mentally and not give up—the race has reopened before,” he concluded.
