Inter Milan found the grounds on the night of Wednesday to Thursday, just over two weeks after its debacle against PSG in the Champions League final (0-5). For their entry into this club World Cup, the players now led by Cristian Chivu, Simone Inzaghi who joined Al-Hilal, challenged the CF Monterrey de Sergio Ramos. And for his first with his new stable, the coach did not convince. The Italians, although dominating, saw the Mexican stable opening the scoring. This could not be another way than thanks to a head by Sergio Ramos, on a corner (25th). The integrators were trying to react but lacked the opportunities they managed to create.
It was finally on a free kick, played in combination, that the situation was going to unlock. Kristjan Asllani sent a small ball over the defense, who arrived to Carlos Augusto. The latter then gave Lautaro Martinez, who only had to push in the empty goal (42nd). The Milanese were then scary in the second half, with an extremely distant strike from Sergio Canales which crashed on the post (64th) and was not far from becoming the most beautiful goal of the tournament. The inter thought then regained control, still thanks to Lautaro Martinez, but the Argentinian saw his goal be refused for a position of offside (68th). Final score (1-1). After this first day in group E, River Plate is running in mind. The Nerazzurri find themselves second, tied with their opponent of the day, while the Japanese of Urawa close the walk.
