Out-of-sorts Inter Milan wingback Luis Henrique underperformed in Sunday’s 2-1 Serie A away win over Genoa.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Brazilian emerged as Inter’s most underwhelming performer at Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
With Denzel Dumfries and Matteo Darmian out injured, Henrique made his third consecutive league start yesterday.
Yet, it was another forgettable evening for the heavily criticized wingback, who struggled to make an impact at the Marassi.
Luis Henrique Struggles in Genoa 1-2 Inter Milan Win
Despite showing signs of resurgence in recent matches, Luis Henrique flopped once again.
Indeed, the former Marseille star offered nothing in the final third, frequently shying away from one-on-one challenges with his marker.
Furthermore, Francesco Pio Esposito and Lautaro Martinez desperately lacked service from the right flank.
However, Cristian Chivu refused to sub off the struggling 23-year-old, citing a shortage of dependable alternatives on the bench.
Nonetheless, it was hardly a promising warm-up for Henrique ahead of Inter’s Supercoppa Italiana commitments.
Without Dumfries and Darmian, he is likely to be Chivu’s first option on the wing against Bologna on Friday.
Because of him we were playing with 10 players.
