Inter Milan and coach Simone Inzaghi reacted strongly. Inzaghi described as “unfounded” and confirmed that the team always complied with the anti -doping rules, according to the Gazzetta dello Sport. Dumfries, in the publication in X of @inter_xtra, expressed its disappointment: “We won with sweat and solidarity, not dirty.” Thuram, who has just returned after the thigh injury, emphasizing the strict training regime of the Inter is the reason for the maximum yield. Barella is expected, although not speaking, works completely with FIFA to demonstrate purity.
The fans community is deeply divided. @Meatepride on X admits Flick, saying that Inter “has something shaded” by maintaining the pressure for 90 minutes, while @intermilanfra asked FIFA to investigate the film because “I stain the honor of the champion”. Some neutral opinions, such as @footballTalkeu, suggest waiting for the results of doping to conclude, emphasizing that modern UEFA and FIFA tests are reliable.
