I think this match should not have been a draw because Inter Milan record is so strong that even strong teams are weak in front of them, but a weak team did not allow them to win the match which is a shame for their strength.  Inter Milan played very badly, they should have won this match. In any case, Inter Milan should not have played like this. This game of Inter may break the hope of many people.  Inter Milan will have to win all the next matches to ensure that they don't win the match due to pressure and underestimating the opposition team. Other players could have won this match by working hard, it is not necessary that this team be successful only with these two players. He will stay because his record is enough to win this title but not this match has started creating wrong meaning in the hearts of many people.

I saw their counter-attacks were quite effective when facing Atalanta, not the whole match that Juventus had.
Juventus played defensively because they realized that their front line was less productive. but when the match faced Atalanta, you could see Juventus under pressure from Atalanta players and most of the attacks were made from counter-attacks. Although not always resulting in goals, in counter-attacks they always managed to make threatening shots. That effort managed to make Atalanta players more careful with their defense. Juventus' counter-attacks might have been more effective if they had better midfielders and strikers.

Hey, this is a wrong understanding regarding the condition of the standings in Serie A. Before the Inter Milan - Bologna match, Inter Milan had 43 points, which if they got 3 points when facing Bologna, their total points would only be 46 points, being 1 point behind points belong to Napoli. Then, it's not that easy to shift a team that has great confidence. Don't you remember the 2022/23 season? they are irreplaceable at the top.

It was not enough time for Inter Milan to find a winning goal and they had a draw eventually. It's disappointed result for Inter Milan because it somewhat damages their chance to take over a first position that is currently held by Napoli. Anyway, it's a draw, not a defeat and Inter Milan can have same total points as Napoli if they win a rescheduled match.

Simeone won Scudetto with Inter Milan and in Champions League, he had one final match with them, so he is very ambitious in this season, to win not only Scudetto but also Champions League after three seasons in the club. He knows that he needs to maximize this player generation he has, and if they won't win Champions League together in next one to three seasons, he will have to build a new squad with many other players.

Napoli have an advantage but not too much and in general Scudetto competition is still very hot and tight among three clubs, Napoli, Inter Milan and Atalanta with possible big advantage in long run belongs to Inter Milan.

Simone Inzaghi's strategy did not work well in the match and they conceded early in the 15th minute although three minutes later they managed to equalize and finally entered the first half Inter Milan managed to take the lead through a goal scored by Martinez. Simone Inzaghi rotated players in the second half and I don't see many changes because Inter Milan played a much more relaxed match so Bologna managed to equalize.

Napoli are more advantaged after Inter Milan and Atalanta drew but will put a little more pressure on the next match because Napoli will face Atalanta. This match will make a difference if one of them loses or draws because Inter Milan will have the advantage when facing Empoli.

You know these three clubs are currently rivals, and any of them that drop points will widening the point gap from the others. This is why Napoli will be very happy, but Napoli too might later drop points, because I don't think they can win the rest of their matches. I was expecting Inter to win the match but it didn't end up that way. However, I knew that it would be a difficult match for Inter.

I think Inter will win easily, especially since they managed to close the first half with a 2-1 win. Inter really threw away a golden opportunity to close the gap with Napoli, losing 2 points is a big loss for them, at least they could have taken over Napoli's position because they still have one game left. Sometimes unexpected things can happen in a match, Inter played too openly after going 2-1 up, leaving space for Bologna to catch up.

It is very unfortunate that Inter failed to get 3 full points from Bologna even though I think this is a very important match for Inter because if Inter could get 3 points it would certainly make Inter's points the difference becomes small  with Napoli. But on one hand I also admire the quality of Bologna's game, they appeared very confident and Bologna was very great at being able to open the first goal in that match but fortunately Inter was able to reply to that goal and finally a fierce battle took place. But I think one day Inter will definitely have the potential to shift Napoli's position as long as Inzaghi can make Inter's performance even better and I hope that in the next match Inter can win when competing and of course Empoli will definitely be defeated by Inter in the upcoming match. In my opinion, Napoli currently needs to be vigilant because of course Inter, the champion last season, will try to shift Napoli's position and of course Inter wants to win the Scudetto again.

It should not be a disappointing result but it is a better result than ending up losing. Although Bologna is considered a weaker team than Inter, Bologna has Inter's weaknesses. So that in every match there is always the same result as in H2H both teams have the same result. Even Inter once lost when playing against Inter. Regarding the position between Napoli and Inter, Napoli is still a little comfortable because after the draw Napoli is still at the top of the standings. But in the upcoming match I am sure Napoli vs Atalanta will end in a draw and there will be no change in position.

This was a very frustrating result for both the management and supporters of Inter Milan who expected that they will win and close the gap between them and Napoli. The draw simply mean that even if Inter Milan wins their outstanding match, they will be at the same point with Napoli, although they have good goal difference that is better than that of Napoli.

Although, for the short term, Inter Milan will likely climb to the top of the league because it is not vertain that Napoli will be able to beat Atalanta who they are meeting next in a match that will likely end in a draw. If this happens, then Inter Milan will be set to assume the top because they will definitely win their next match as two consecutive draws is not something they will allow.

Only a draw for 2-2 yesterday evening between Inter and Bologna.
Without Chalhanoglu and Mkhitaryan Inter looks a different team.
Without the loughs of these 2 players their midfields looks a different thing.

Anyway they are still the favorite for winning the league, easly.

Inzaghi had to increase the risk because it was necessary not to lose points in such matches for the championship. However, at this point, they still lost points. Inter lost two very critical points. I think it would be very difficult to make up for such matches. Of course, Napoli was the happiest in the Italian league this week. Atalanta, who lost points to Juventus, and Inter, who drew in the match they played yesterday, made Napoli happy.

as I said, the Inter-Bologna game will have goals and both teams have scored.
but what is odd, I think, is teams like Inter who could have capitalized on this game, threw it away?

how other teams like bologna found themselves having challenging positions when they faced and played with stronger teams like Inter but not with other competitions?

these are indeed some of the attractions of football but I believe that by now all clubs must have learned from these events for things like this not to happen again.

In round 21, we have two big games Juventus hosting AC Milan and then Atlanta hosting Napoli these are going to be exciting games because Atlanta is currently having problematic results but still they can fight back in any game if we have their good game against Napoli then three teams could be on same level. AC Milan is having good record after change of coach if they are able to give setback to Juventus this could be boosted for them but in case if we have won for the Juventus this is also going to be good as they will be having strong case of going into top four.

In last night game, Bologna have good resistance from Bologna which keep pressuring Inter Milan and ended their game on score of 2–2 which is also good for them and concern for the Inter Milan which is not able to keep momentum after losing final of Super Cup.

I wouldn't say they "suck", I mean yeah they are not as good as they used to be, there is a truth to that, but to say that they suck is too much. The fact that they tied with Atalanta is a great example that they have what it takes to get points from even the top teams, and they are fifth in the league as well, which isn't really a terrible position to be in.

And the fact that they literally had zero losses so far, is a great testaments that they are doing a good job. The 13 draws is a weird one though lol, I agree with the one saying they are trying to break the record for most ties, but even with that, zero losses in 20 games is a huge deal. So while it does look like they are not great like they used to be, they do not look like they "suck".

Napoli had a really big chance this week. Both of their opponents dropped points. Napoli made the biggest profit at this stage. They are currently still in the lead in the Italian League and even if Inter wins their missing match, they will have the same number of points as Napoli. This means that if Inter wins their missing match, they will be Napoli's partner at the top. Napoli wants to be the champion of the Italian League this year too.

Although Inter Milan did not get full points in the match at home, Inter Milan is also not far behind Napoli who is at the top of the Serie A standings and currently Inter Milan has not played a match for the 20th week so there is still a chance to be able to equalize the points with the points owned by Napoli. Indeed, being more consistent in each round of the match is not easy so the draw experienced by Inter Milan at home is a very reasonable result even though the opponent they face is an opponent who is not so extraordinary, namely Bologna.

In my opinion, this song should be utilized well by Inter because if in this match they can get +3 points then in the next match ends with a win then Inter will eliminate Napoli at the top of the standings, but unfortunately again and again Inter struggled to beat Bologna at home in the last two meetings between Inter and Bologna at Inter's home ground, the home team has not managed to win the match because of a draw and a win for Bologna, this is actually a statistic that is very hard to believe for Inter fans but in fact Inter in the last few meetings have struggled a lot and in the previous match Bologna dominated the match at Inter's home ground by making 14 shots and Inter only 12 shots, this states that Bologna really destroyed Inter's chances of overtaking Napoli in the middle of this season.

But looking at Thuram in this match he was indeed less aggressive as a striker that's why he has not helped Inter lately also Thuram did not score any more goals his performance has declined and in my opinion he should be rested in several matches to give opportunities to other players because Thuram did look very difficult in several matches lately, in my opinion this is a bad result for Inter because they failed to get full points because they should have been able to use this as an advantage to be able to be at the top of the standings.

Yes, the draw that Inter achieved against Bologna actually had a negative impact on their competition for the Scudetto this season. Due to Inter getting a draw in this match, Napoli now has a very good opportunity to continue to increase the point difference with Inter. Because currently Inter has a 3 point difference with Napoli. So if, for example, Inter gets another bad result in the next match and Napoli actually gets the full 3 points again, I think this will make things even more difficult for Inter. But next week's match should not be too difficult for Inter to get the full 3 points. Because the team that Inter will face next week is Empoli. So with this, Inter should be able to beat Empoli easily. Because Empoli is a team that is not too strong in Serie A.

Then talking about Inter's performance in the match against Bologna, I saw that Inter did not play optimally in this match. Because in this match Bologna dominated the match more than Inter. So if you look at this, Inter seems to be currently having poor performance. Because Bologna is a mid-table team in Serie A and has a poor record in its last 5 matches. But even so, Inter failed to win in this match and if the Bologna players can take advantage of all their opportunities well, Inter could suffer defeat in this match. Therefore, Inzaghi may have to make a few more changes to his squad at Inter.

I also thought Inter Milan would win this match but it turned out they were only able to get a draw but I think it's better than having to suffer a defeat at home, at least Inter Milan still has 1 match that has not been played so they still have a chance to approach Napoli Inter Milan's current performance is still quite consistent so don't worry Inter might continue to put pressure on the top of the standings.
