No More Major Squad Rotation – Inzaghi To Go With Strong Inter Milan Lineups As Serie A Title Race Vs Napoli Back In Play | OneFootball

Simone Inzaghi will not rotate the Inter Milan going forward in the Serie A title race with Napoli more catchable than ever.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews.

Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi was hardly hiding his aims with his starting eleven selection against Torino yesterday.

The Nerazzurri had just gone through an exhausting Champions League semifinal second leg against Barcelona in midweek.

With many players on the pitch for two hours in that dramatic 4-3 extra time win, Inzaghi had to rest many of them.

Therefore, it was little surprise that Inzaghi gave quite a few players the night off against Torino yesterday.

Inter Milan were without all of Lautaro Martinez, Benjamin Pavard, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Davide Frattesi due to injury.

Meanwhile, the likes of Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Denzel Dumfries, and Federico Dimarco were among the players who started on the bench for Inter.

No More Squad Rotation From Inzaghi As Inter Chase Napoli In Serie A Table

The likes of Nicola Zalewski, Joaquin Correa, Mehdi Taremi, and Kristjan Asllani all started for Inter.

And they were among the starts on the day as the Nerazzurri secured three points against Torino.

On the other hand, Napoli played the strongest possible starting eleven in their Serie A clash with Genoa. However, they had to settle for a point after a 2-2 draw.

Therefore, Inter are now within a point of Napoli at the summit of the table.

Accordingly, the Nerazzurri will be well aware that even one more stumble by the Partenopei would be enough to allow them to take back control at the top of the table.

If that opportunity comes, Inter certainly won’t want to regret passing it up.

Therefore, the Gazzetta note, the time for squad rotation has passed for Inter and Inzaghi.
