one could have invoked the rule of mercy”

“The first half was dominated by Inter, so much so that they invoked the «Mercy Rule», the mercy rule that allows the baseball umpire to interrupt a game for manifest inferiority”. This is the analysis of Corriere della Sera Of Inter-Milan, a match that was never really in doubt and with the Rossoneri only having one chance, which Giroud badly squandered in the second half. The victory confirms the Nerazzurri’s great moment of form, who, as stated by their protagonists, never stop dreaming of a comeback on Napoli. What is real is that Inter secures a place in the top four of the championship, probably second in class, and condemns Milan to chase for a place in the Champions League area. Which in a Serie A in which Napoli travels alone, seems to be the consolation trophy. Even more than Super Cups or Italian Cups.
