Inter Milan & Juventus Expected To Meet In Australian Pre-Season Friendly

Both Australian opponents are expected to be Italian clubs, with Inter confirmed as one of the two.

The last time the two sides met, the fixture was marred in controversy.

Many critics claimed Bastoni dived to get Pierre Kalulu sent off.

The Italian infuriated more pundits and fans by celebrating the Frenchman’s dismissal.

He has since apologised but continues to receive boos and jeers.

The identity of the second Serie A side has yet to be established.

It is a significant pre-season event for both clubs, giving their new-look rosters, shaped by what promises to be a busy summer transfer window for each, an early competitive workout in front of passionate Italian football communities in Asia and the southern hemisphere.
