Dzeko, a constant poison

What a performance from Edin Dzeko, in the oven and in the mill in this match.

The Bosnian striker weighed heavily on the opposing defense by playing his pivotal role wonderfully.

Interesting to launch his partner Lautaro Martinez or the Pistons, he was decisive on the first goal, with a subtle deflection for Barella, the decisive passer, before scoring the second like a great after having mystified Tonali.

Lautaro Martinez, the class gesture

Since his return from the World Cup, Lautaro Martinez seems in good shape and scored his third goal in three games in all competitions.

And what a goal.

Launched by an opening from Skriniar, he resisted Tomori before adjusting the AC Milan goalkeeper with a superb outside of the foot.

The important 3-0 goal that knocked out his opponent.

Calhanoglu, beaming in the middle

The Turkish midfielder was sparkling in the midfield.

Both in the recovery and in the animation of the interist game.

Omnipresent, we saw him tackle, rake in the opposing feet and ensure his raises perfectly.

An essential pawn to extinguish the opposing midfielder.

FLOPS

Olivier Giroud and his struggling attacking partners

Although dominated, AC Milan had opportunities to express themselves but the attacking players were very approximate, starting with the brilliant Leao who missed out on this Italian Super Cup by missing easy checks and gestures , despite an awakening in the second half.

As for Olivier Giroud, he never weighed on the debates by participating little in the game and by showing himself to be non-existent in the opposing area.

A completely harmless attack.

Tatarusanu not decisive, Kjaer out of form

The former Ligue 1 players were not at the party, starting with the ex-Nantais Tatarusanu who is struggling to make Maignan forget in the AC Milan cage.

Beaten on his first 2 shots on target, the Romanian goalkeeper did not breathe serenity elsewhere in his exits and shots, although he released a few opposing attempts.

As for Kjaer (former Losc), his tenure seemed daring on the part of coach Pioli as he lacked competition before this meeting.

The Dane was logically in difficulty against this Inter in full swing, not helped by a feverish Tomori at his side.

Théo Hernandez, a game to forget

The French side was in difficulty in his left lane, often being overwhelmed by the activity of Darmian or even the infiltrations of Barella.

Offensively, he was discreet by not attempting many climbs.

Like Giroud, he will quickly forget this Italian Supercup.
