OK, their first-choice boss Simone Inzaghi was technically suspended, but seeing his assistant Massimiliano Farris trot out for the pre-game interview only reinforced a feeling that we were not about to watch the real thing.For months, Inter had tried to compete at full focus on every front, Inzaghi speaking of the ambition to win a quadruple.
