Serie A: The stoppage plot makes people feel helpless, Inter Milan loses the opportunity to reach the top

In the early morning of May 19, in the 37th round of Serie A, Inter Milan drew 2-2 with Lazio at home, and missed the opportunity to overtake Napoli due to a goal conceding in the 90th minute.

When the championship suspense of the Premier League, Ligue 1, La Liga and Bundesliga had long been revealed, the Serie A championship drama still staged a shocking reversal at the last moment.

In this round of the game, Napoli was accidentally tied 0-0 by Parma. The news came, Inter Milan players who were facing Lazio at Meazza Stadium seemed to see the dawn of overtaking. Under the command of coach Simeone Inzaghi, Inter Milan still led 2-1 until the 89th minute, and seemed to be about to regain the top spot from Naples. However, the crazy plot was staged in the 90th minute - after a controversial penalty in the penalty area, VAR intervened and determined that Bissek's handball foul was made, and the home team was awarded a penalty. Veteran Pedro scored 2-2 and fell into silence. In the 90th and 9th minute of stoppage time, Inter Milan fans once ushered in a carnival moment: Marco Arnautovic scored the third goal of the game, rewriting the score to 3-2. However, VAR intervened again and determined that the Austrian striker was offside first and the goal was invalid.

This ups and downs in the draw made Inter miss the opportunity to overtake and is still 1 point behind Naples. In the last round of the game, Inter Milan not only had to defeat Como, but also wanted Napoli to lose points against Cagliari before they had a chance to win the Serie A championship.

In just a few weeks, Inter Milan has gone from a giant team that is optimistic about the "triple crown" (Serie A, Italian Cup, and Champions League) to a championship team with only one front left in the Champions League final. Now, Inzaghi's team can only place all hope in the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain in Munich on June 1 - only by holding up the Big Ear Cup can we restore a trace of dignity for this regret-filled season.
