Inter Milan 3-0 Cagliari – ‘Fair’ Officiating As Nerazzurri In Complete Control | OneFootball

Inter Milan’s 3-0 victory over Cagliari was played in a broadly fair manner with no major officiating controversies, according to Gazzetta dello Sport’s match review, aside from a missed card for Cagliari’s Yerry Mina.

Indeed, a welcome change of pace for a club that has spent much of the season debating referee decisions.

Gazzetta, via FCInterNews, identify only one moment that could be considered a missed call across the full 90 minutes.

At the six-minute mark of the second half, Cagliari defender Mina stamped on Thuram in an incident the outlet believe warranted a yellow card.

However, referee Marchetti let it pass without any action.

Inter 3-0 Cagliari – Correct Bookings As Penalty Claims Rightly Dismissed But Mina Yellow Missed

Earlier in the match, a contact between Mkhitaryan and Gaetano in the Cagliari penalty area at the 24th minute was assessed as too light to constitute a foul.

Therefore, the decision to wave away any penalty appeal was considered correct.

Furthermore, both yellow cards issued during the game were judged fair by Gazzetta.

Sebastian Esposito was booked for a late challenge on Mkhitaryan.

Meanwhile Borrelli received his card two minutes later for jumping into and fouling De Vrij.

Overall, a clean and controlled evening, both on and off the pitch.
