Inter Milan s first draw in the Club World Cup, how to deal with the dangerous road ahead?

On June 18, the first round of the 2025 Club World Cup Group E group stage was held at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Los Angeles, USA, and Inter Milan drew 1-1 with Monterrey, Mexico. Shortly after the game began, Monterrey's Ramos headed the ball in the 25th minute to lead, but Inter Milan's Lautaro counterattacked in time in the 42nd minute of the first half, equalizing the score to 1-1, and the two sides finally shook hands and made peace. After the game, some observers pointed out that although Inter Milan is in poor form, the styles of teams from various continents are obvious, and more unpopular battles may arise in the future.

In this Club World Cup, Inter Milan was assigned to Group E, competing with Argentina Riverbed, Japan's Urawa Red Diamonds and Mexico's Montree. After losing to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final, Inter Milan's morale was frustrated, and the departure of coach Inzaghi Jr. put the team under unprecedented pressure. How to regroup in a short period of time and strive to win the Club World Cup championship has become the top priority of Inter Milan's coaching staff.

Inter Milan still has the second-place team in the Champions League this year's Club World Cup. The team leader Lautaro, goalkeeper Sommer, Toulam Jr., Cialhanoglu and others are all on the list. In addition, the newly introduced Enrique and Susic have also joined the team. Considering that the overall strength of the opponents in the group is relatively low, Inter Milan is regarded as the biggest favorite to win the E Group Championship. As a traditional strong team, Inter Milan has obvious advantages in both offense and defense. Not only has a brilliant record and strong historical accumulation, but also has excellent performance and rich experience in core players. The 3-5-2 tactical system built by former coach Inzaghi Jr. has made the combat effectiveness of the Nerazzo Army reach its extreme. After the results of the group stage draw were released, many fans predicted that as long as Inter Milan adjusts its state and ensures the health of the main players, they can basically lock in the top spot in the group. In the first game, Inter Milan faced Monterrey, Mexico, and its opponents were strong, especially the existence of players such as Ramos and Botrame, which posed a significant threat to the Nerazzurri. In the starting lineup, Inter Milan sent players such as Sommer, Archerby, Damian, Aslani and Lautaro, while Monterrey sent Andrada, Guzman, Ramos, Artiga, Torres and Botrame. Although both sides created some threats in the second half, they ultimately failed to rewrite the score and ended with a 1-1 handshake.
