Italian media examine the argument involving Romelu Lukaku and Nicolò Barella and La Repubblica highlights that it ‘reflects the Nerazzurri’ at this moment.
The Belgian striker and the Italian midfielder argued at Marassi in the first half of a 0-0 draw against Sampdoria on Monday.
Lukaku was unhappy with his teammate’s attitude, a feeling that, according to Il Corriere dello Sport, is shared by many other Inter players.
This morning’s editions of Italian papers analyse the incident and what it means for the Nerazzurri.
La Repubblica stresses that the argument between the pair “reflects Inter’s moment and their irritability.”
“There was frustration because Inter were not able to cause trouble to Sampdoria’s defence and even substitutions didn’t help,” wrote Repubblica.
According to Gazzetta, Napoli‘s incredible run of form may give Inter players more reasons to be frustrated.
Following last night’s 0-0 draw in Genoa, the Partenopei are now 15 points above second-placed Inter in the Serie A table.
