It's a long-distance exchange between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Mario Balotelli.
The first to do so was the former Swedish international who, speaking today at the Trento Sports Festival, spoke about the career of the Italian footballer, saying: "He had many opportunities, he didn't take even one. There are many who want to have only one opportunity, he missed all the opportunities he had".
The response, via social media, of the current Adana Demirspor striker, was not long in coming. 'SuperMario' posted, in a story, a photo with the Champions League won with Inter in 2010, tagging Ibrahimovic underneath, who has always "dreamed" of the most prestigious continental club trophy, without ever winning it.
Shortly after, Balotelli himself commented on a post published on the Instagram page of “La Gazzetta dello Sport”, writing: “In Manchester you were afraid and I wanted to win (on the pitch). The following year we won the Champions League anyway, but Zlatan I still love you”.
All this referring not only to the Champions League won in 2010 but also to the 2008-09 season, in which Inter (who had both Balotelli and Ibra in their squad, who left the following year) were eliminated in the round of 2 by Manchester United, losing 0-XNUMX at Old Trafford.
