What a match! Genoa team performed well today. I'm sure most gamblers bet Inter Milan to win this match. Because the Inter Milan team is very strong, and this team is the most favorite to win the title. So no one thought that the Inter Milan team would fail to get full points in the first match.

The match was drawn 2-2. I have to say the performance of the Genoa players surprised me a lot today. The Genoa players were able to put up a tough resistance against the Inter Milan players. Genoa had only 32% ball possession in this match. But even then, genoa's players were able to create plenty of attacking opportunities. Inter Milan tried to dominate the match. But the team failed to score full points due to some weak defense. Serie A is likely to be very competitive this season.

Genoa's performance was superb. But this due Intermilan's poor performance at their mid. we have a team without creators from midfield, and this makes things harder for us to score. It took until the 80th minute to see a midfielder in a playmaking position, and finally gave a striker a through ball, not a cross or a long ball.

That's why we got two goals to equalize the score. Still, I'm disappointed we dropped three points from Genoa. It was due to Bisseck's small mistake with a handball in the box.

Midfield still remains the biggest problem owned by Intermilan.

In my opinion, it's not that Genoa played well in this match, but that Inter Milan played very badly, they no longer have the class of a champion.

With this result, Inter Milan only got 1 point on the opening day of Serie A season 2024/25. Surely Inter Milan fans and Inter Milan bettors will be very sad about this match. More notably, both of Genoa's goals were largely thanks to Inter Milan's defense. In Vogliacco's first goal, Inter Milan's reliable goalkeeper Yann Sommer made a silly mistake, giving the goal away to the Italian full-back. In the final minute of the match, Inter Milan's defense made another mistake, leading to Genoa being awarded a penalty and Junior Messias did not miss the opportunity. Inter will struggle to defend their Serie A title if they continue to defend so sloppily.
