On September 18, 2016, at San Siro, the Derby d’Italia is scheduled. Inter-Juventuswith Frank De Boer and Massimiliano Allegri on the bench respectively. The Nerazzurri seem to be in great difficulty after a month, while the Bianconeri give sensations of unchallenged domination of Serie A. It will go exactly like this, but not that evening. Horrible Thursday for the Dutchman, Sunday to remember for the fourth of the championship: Icardi drags the team, Banega and Joao Mario play their best match with the Inter shirt.
The match ended 2-1, with the initial goal by Lichtsteiner, followed by responses from Icardi and Perisic. Allegri plays only twenty minutes with Higuain, while De Boer dispels the ghosts of a possible dismissal that seemed to be hovering and that will happen shortly after. And yet the start is really Juve, with Alex Sandro who goes away and puts in the perfect cross that the Swiss only has to put in the net. A little later Banega invents for Icardi who heads above Mandzukic sending the ball to the far post.
Then it was Perisic again, with his header, who took advantage of a cross from Icardi. Game overturned in twelve minutes, from the sixty-fifth to the seventy-eighth, Juve does not come close to scoring except with a header from Higuain. Curiosity: a few days earlier Inter had struggled with Hapoel Beer Sheva. Crazy Inter, never like in that season.
