Inzaghi and Inter’s Outcry: Bologna’s Goal Should Have Been Disallowed
Inter Milan players and coaching staff protested fiercely against the referee’s controversial decision following their match against Bologna.
The heated match between Bologna and Inter Milan was not only intense on the pitch but also sparked controversy after the final whistle. A 1-0 defeat for Simone Inzaghi’s side allowed Napoli to draw level with Inter at the top of the table, while Bologna temporarily overtook Juventus in the standings. However, the drama didn’t end there…
Referee Surrounded by Protests!
After the match, tensions flared at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara. Inter players and staff surrounded the referee, preventing him from leaving the pitch. The reason? A simple throw-in that led to Bologna’s winning goal by Riccardo Orsolini. The decision has since become the main talking point in sports media.
Inzaghi: “A 13-Meter Throw-In? Are You Joking?”
Simone Inzaghi voiced his frustration after the match: “It’s clear the tension was about the last throw-in. That throw-in was taken at least 12 or 13 meters ahead of where it should have been. This is a fact, not an opinion! The throw-in was right in front of our bench but ended up being taken near Bologna’s technical area!”
The Inter coach tried not to use the incident as an excuse for the defeat but emphasized that such mistakes are unacceptable at this level: “This is not an excuse. We should have played better, but such a decision cannot be overlooked.”
Social media erupted with reactions after the match, as Inter fans shared images and videos of the incident, criticizing the refereeing and blaming the decision for their team’s loss.
While Bologna strengthened their Champions League qualification hopes with this win, Inter must now regroup to maintain their title challenge while dealing with the frustration caused by this controversial decision.
