Davide Frattesi and Matteo Cocchi fell short of expectations in last night’s Coppa Italia quarter-final tie between Inter Milan and Torino.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Italian midfielder delivered another bleak performance amid a rough patch.
Despite being given a rare chance to start, Davide Frattesi failed to seize the opportunity.
Indeed, the 26-year-old struggled to find his rhythm in the middle of the park, often losing possession way too cheaply.
Furthermore, his trademark runs between the lines were nowhere to be seen.

In addition to Frattesi, Matteo Cocchi failed to rise to the occasion in his maiden senior start for the club.
Deployed on the left wing at the expense of Federico Dimarco, Cocchi lacked precision and confidence when moving forward.
Perhaps surprisingly, second-half substitute Petar Sucic joined this category.
In the meantime, goalscorer Andy Diouf was outstanding in the middle of pitch.
Apart from the goal, the French star emerged as the beating heart of Inter’s engine room in the absence of first-team stalwarts.
also, dont know if anyone noticed, but Cochi has some seriously good corner kicks in his boots
Who the f**k writes this crap?!?
Their goal, there’s 3 damn CB’s and frattesi is all on his own. He’s never been used correctly that’s not his job, where are the defenders ffs.
As for the young lad, “flop” is totally unjustified.
And calling Diouf fantastic …. I seriously don’t know what some of you are watching.
If we think a guy that scores a tap in and completes as many passes as he gives away is “outstanding” then we are in real trouble.
Cocchi was ok the author is wrong.
Kamate stole the show, obviously, but Cocchi did nothing wrong, and looked an able deputy at LWB…. what exactly are you expecting from a 19 year old debutant?
Biggest takes from yesterday are that Kamate did a better job than Henrique, and Diouf needs more minutes!! 3 goals now, in next to no minutes whatsoever!!
Diouf has clear talent. He really lacked confidence early on but these goals should help.
Kamate looked good on the front foot but it’s tough to judge until we see these youngsters in a derby, etc. It’s a different thing entirely when there is immense physical and psychological pressure.
