Meet Zvezda's rival - Inter

One of the biggest clubs in Italy, it was founded back in 1908. They share the stadium where they play with their "angry" rival - Milan, with whom our players will also meet in this year's edition of the Champions League. How big a club Inter is, is also shown by the number of trophies in their museum: three Champions League trophies, the same number of times they were world champions, then 20 state championship trophies, three UEFA Cup trophies, nine Italian Cup trophies and eight Italian Super Cup trophies.

Crvena zvezda have met Inter Milan only twice throughout history. Both times in the 1980/81 season, in the quarter-finals of the European Champions Cup. The first game played in Italy ended with a score of 1:1. In the first match, the scorer for Zvezda was Srebrenko Repčić. Nevertheless, in the second match, our rival celebrated with 0:1, but that did not prevent over 90 thousand of the best fans in the world from organizing a spectacle. Great players such as: Ivan Bordon, Giuseppe Baresi, Gracijan Bini, Giampiero Marini, Dominik Cass, Alessandro Altobelli played for Inter at that time, while great players like: Dragan Simeunović, Ivan Jurišić, Mile Jovin, Dragan Miletović, Rajko Janjanin played for our team. , Zlatko Krmpotić, Miloša Šestić, Vladimir Petrović...

Today's head of Inter's coaching staff is Simone Inzaghi, a forty-eight-year-old Italian, who enforces the formation that was created in the "boot" area, which is 3-5-2. He plays with three stoppers who handle the ball very well, the popular "wing-backs", who constantly help both in the attack and defense phases, and with two strikers who exert constant pressure on the opposing defenses. They have been playing great since the start of the new season. In the first three rounds of Serie A, they recorded two wins and one draw, which puts them in first place in the best Italian league.

Their lineup consists of: Zomer - Pavar, Acerbi, Bastoni - Darmian, Barela, Calhanoglu, Mhitarjan, Dimarco - Turam, Martinez. Without any hesitation, the biggest challenge for Red Star will be to "break through" the real "bulwark" in front of Sommer's goal. Acerbi and Bastoni are "products" of the Italian defensive school, while the quality of Pavar is not in question, the player who won the World Cup with France. Barela, Calhanoglu and Mkhitaryan also represent the "trio" with which our players will fight a big battle. The quality of Inter does not end there, because on the bench there are players like: Fratezi, Taremi, Stefan de Vraj, Dumfries, Aslani, Joaquin Correa, Zielinski and Marko Arnautovic.
