Inter Milan vs. Chievo Verona and Chievo to a draw with Juventus

Inter’s Early Chances


Despite their recent struggles, Claudio Ranieri’s side started well. They created chances out of the early confusion in Chievo’s back four, but the Verona players had started to find their footing when the worst happened.


As a ball dropped into the left side of the box, Chievo defender Francesco Acerbi leaped to deny an Inter attacker. The ball dropped next to him and bounced up directly into his upraised arm.


Just 14 minutes into the game, Diego Milito placed the ball at the spot and prepared to put Inter ahead. Perhaps no one told him just how hot Chievo wearing the Soccer Jerseys keeper Stefano Sorrentino had been lately.


Milito drove his penalty shot waist high, just to the left of Sorrentino. The keeper guessed the right way and was able to adjust his leap to keep the ball out.


It was a big battle for Chievo to win, but the war was a long way from finished.


Just a few minutes later, Wesley Sneijder emphasized that point as the ball fell to him at the left corner of Chievo’s penalty box. Sneijder cut back onto his right foot and unleashed a curling ball that beat Sorrentino, only to ping off the crossbar and out.As the half wore on, Chievo were pushed further and further into their own half. Inter’s Brazilian right-back Douglas Maicon essentially abandoned defense after the first 30 minutes and set himself up deep inside the Chievo half.


With Maicon incessantly combining down the right side, Inter’s attacking play continually tested the back four as well as the array of defensive midfielders employed by Chievo.


Faced with waves of Inter attackers, wearing the Custom Soccer Jerseys team Chievo’s central defensive pairing of Acerbi and Marco Andreolli were extremely solid during the first half and managed to fight off crossed balls and throw themselves in front of several menacing shot attempts.


The visiting side chased, harassed and otherwise pressured Inter at every turn, but they were unable to turn their ball-winning into consistently effective counterattacks.
