Barcelona vs Inter was running out and the referee, just before the final whistle, took out the red card against Simone Inzaghi. The nerazzurri coach was indeed sent to the locker room just moments from the end and what happens in those animated minutes is nothing short of hilarious. Nothing to do with the reaction of the Inter coach, but the commentators during the live match broadcast by British TV BT Sport. During the program, the moments in which Simone Inzaghi is expelled by the referee are commented.
James Horncastle, an English journalist specializing in European and especially Italian football, also given his experience in Rome, tried to understand what the Inter coach himself was saying to the game director to apologize for what he had said a little earlier. At one point you clearly hear Horncastle say “Beach” with the pronunciation of the term typical of Simone Inzaghi, who often sarcastically identified the Nerazzurri’s coach.
James Horncastle clearly pronounces this word and since he knows this expression very well from the Inter coach says: “Inzaghi would say ‘Spiaze'”. At this point in the studio there is general laughter. James Richardson, Julien Laurens and Rapahel Honigstein present with Horncastle to lead the show literally go crazy. The Inter coach on several occasions, mainly in the period when he coached Lazio and made himself known in professional football, uttered the phrase several times “Sorry about the boys” during post-game interviews. a sentence that with your rather pronounced Piacenza accent turned into a “beach” becoming almost a catchphrase that at this time also became known in England.
Simone Inzaghi on the pitch, however, to the Barcelona-Inter referee did not say “Spiaze”, but simply apologized for having protested. However, the referee had already identified that he had practically entered the field at the end of the game so that his players would have the ball on the flag. The Inter coach left the area technique that delimits the bench practically approaching its players. Simone Inzaghi shouted the phrase several times, with sweeping gestures: “It’s over, it’s over!” A reaction that the referee didn’t like, punishing Inzaghi with a sending off and sending him to the locker room thirty seconds before.
