FC Internazionale Milano (football club)
A dramatic incident surrounding a penalty kick was the turning point in a 1-2 loss to Spazia in their latest Serie A match. Nadalou Martinez had the chance to take the penalty before Lucaçu, but ended up conceding, which was the trigger for the loss. According to the Italian media, the club's top management harshly criticized coach Szymon Nyszaki after the match.
Just eight minutes into the match, Inter defender Di Iambusio contested a penalty in the box, which Nadalu Martinez quickly grabbed and took, while another striker, Lukaku, faced coach Szymon Szczeszewski and spread his hands with a grimace, seemingly displeased that the Argentinean international had snatched away the chance to take the spot-kick.
As Nadalou Martinez missed the penalty, the incident attracted a lot of attention from the top management. CEO Marotta and a group of management staff urgently called a meeting with Szymon Szczecki to emphasize the need to win the UEFA Europa League Round of 16 and the next round of Serie A against Juventus, as these two key matches are crucial to the club's financial interests and must not be lost, and must not be a repeat of the mistake made against Spursia.
Szmonińsacki also realizes the seriousness of the situation. La Gazzetta dello Sport is reporting that Szmonińszczecki will decide on the penalty order, with Lukaku expected to be first, followed by Chahanougou, while Nadalou Martinez could be stripped of his right to take penalties. He has taken eight penalties since last season, four of which he has missed, and is unlikely to get another chance to take a penalty, especially in the crucial game against Porto.
