All action hero | The season of Alessandro Bastoni
Team
— Jun 28th 2023Six assists and a nomination in the Champions League team of the season for the Nerazzurri defender: we relive his 2022/2023 campaign
Defence, but also attack. Covering, but also offensive bursts, runs down the wing, number 10-esque crosses. Assists. Alessandro Bastoni has enjoyed another great season: consistency of performance combined with stability in defence and quality going forward. So many matches as a key player, in the Nerazzurri's journey that saw the team win the Coppa Italia, the Supercoppa Italiana and reach the Champions League final. UEFA themselves included Bastoni in the best 11 of the season, along with Federico Dimarco. Further recognition of the very high level of the number 95's performances.
Bastoni made 46 appearances this season, with a total of 3,545 minutes. No goals, but 6 assists, some of which were real standouts: the wand of a left foot in Lisbon, that left-footed cross that landed on Barella's head in the Champions League quarter-final.
It is all the result of a great connection with his teammates: Bastoni's position, combined with Dimarco's movements on the left and the constant exchanges with the full backs, have made the number 95 an extra offensive weapon in the league and in the cups. Added to this is a great defensive solidity, put on display especially in the Champions League, where Inter recorded 8 clean sheets, matched only by Manchester City.
A super season, to be relived in all its glory through All Action Hero - Bastoni.
