As always, No reaction from our great coach to anything happening on the pitch.
At first, we were actually better than Inter for the first few minutes with the exception of sissoko, zebina and melo who were being overly rough and 2 of them earned yellow cards. Zebina and melo calmed down yet sissoko was being even more aggressive. At this point the team captain and/or the coach should have told him to calm down to avoid getting a red if not changed him. We all know how that ended.
The score was 0-0 and Zach's decision to take off DP for poulsen was okay and poulsen performed well. It was predictable that they will control the play and we'll be reduced to counter attacks after we were reduced to 10 men.
He subbed IQ with Amauri which was correct as IQ obviously lacks fitness and form.
HOWEVER, when we conceded the first goal around the 75th minute, Zach failed to react. He waited for a while just watching us in full defense mode until he finally decided to sub Marchiso to bring on Sali. Here i say WTF?
I dont believe that we could have turned the table on Inter anyway, but replacing marchisio with Sali, with absolutely no change of roles for any single player was severe cowardice and/or stupidity.
He should have taken risks... How didn't he risk when he desperately needs points, ball possession is totally with Inter, and every inter attack is inches away from goal. Did he expect us to get lucky from one of those long balls?

Zac is a joke, he was a joke appointment and he remains a joke to this day. We couldn't have had any expectations when we offered this guy the job. The same way you cant have any hopes of Steven Hawkins winning the Gold Medal in the 110m hurdels.
What worries me more than anything is that this board gave him the job in the first place. How he got this job with the CV he had is ridiculous. But so are we, match made in heaven
