Luis Henrique has come under fire for a sloppy and ineffective performance in Inter Milan’s Club World Cup win over Urawa Red Diamonds.
Today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews, aregue the 23-year-old looked out of sync with the team and gave the ball away too many times.
Luis Henrique made his first start for Inter Milan against Urawa Red Diamonds yesterday.
The Brazilian had just signed for Inter a couple weeks ago.
And Henrique had already shown flashes of his quality with his substitute appearance against Monterrey a few days ago.
Therefore, Luis Henrique was certainly one of the main players to watch in the Inter starting eleven against Urawa Reds.
In the view of the Gazzetta dello Sport, however, Luis Henrique looked very much below par.
The Brazilian did look to use his pace and technical ability from time to time.
However, Henrique generally would size up his defender and go sideways. He was unable to really cause any panic in the Urawa Reds defense with any of the dribbles he attempted.
In wide areas, the Brazilian had little effect on the match.
Then around the penalty area, very little that Henrique attempted came off.
Therefore, there remained the strong sense that the former Marseille winger will need to take more time to fit into this Inter team.
