The new coach of Inter Milan failed to pass the first show! On June 18, the first round of the Club World Cup group stage continued to compete, with the Central and North American champion Monterrey facing Inter Milan, who had just returned in the Champions League final. In the 25th minute of this game, veteran Ramos scored a domineering header through a corner kick opportunity, helping Monterrey take the lead. In the 42nd minute, Inter Milan scored a wonderful free kick and Lautaro pushed the empty goal to equalize the score. In the second half, neither team made any achievements, and in the end, the two sides shook hands 1-1 to make peace.

Faced with the Central and North American champion Monterrey, the Nerazzurri had only a scene advantage in this game, but failed to convert the advantage into the final victory. A victory that should have been inevitable was squandered because the Inter Milan soldiers spent too much in front of the goal. As Inter Milan's new helmsman, Qiwo encountered a "opening door" at the start of coaching in the Nerazzurri.

Originally, Inter Milan fans were looking forward to the new coach Ziwo who could lead the team to defeat or even defeat Monterrey, thus setting a good start for his coaching career in the Nerazzurri and Blacks and helping Inter Milan soldiers get out of the shadow of the UEFA Champions League final. But the final result was contrary to expectations. The result of this draw was undoubtedly a disappointing start.

In the whole game, Inter Milan hit the goal frame only twice with 15 shots, and the shooting conversion rate was astonishingly low, especially in the second half. Even though the Nerazzurri formed a siege, the result was an embarrassing 0 shots. In this game, only captain Lautaro Martinez seized one opportunity to equalize the score. Damian, Barrera, Lautaro (except for goals), Zalevski, who came on as a substitute, missed excellent scoring opportunities one after another, which made the Blue and Black fans very helpless.

As for the two newcomers Sucic and Louis Enrique who were highly anticipated, they failed to show a dazzling performance in the game.

In this game, Ziwo's first appearance basically continued the Inter Milan formation style in his period in tactical deployment. The team did dominate the game for most of the time, and the passing fluency was acceptable. However, the most critical issue was fully exposed. Inter Milan players lack more refined cooperation and calmer ending at the forefront of the opponent's penalty area. The simple crossing effect is not good, and the infiltration shots lack precision and strength. Faced with Monterrey's tight defense line, Inter Milan seems to have few ways to do it. With only one ball, it is difficult to create an absolute opportunity that is truly threatening (except those missed opportunities). Ziwo obviously needs time to give an answer on how to improve offensive efficiency and solve the problem of finishing the front line. At least from his debut in this game, Ziwo couldn't say that he was qualified.

When the final whistle sounded, the Monterrey players hugged each other to celebrate this hard-won point, and the Inter Milan players looked particularly lonely in the California sunshine. Ziwo's first coaching test ended in disappointment, but the journey to the Club World Cup has just begun. The Nerazzurri must regain the "sense of honor and confidence in the past few years" as soon as possible. Otherwise, what will be left to Ziwo will be more difficult challenges and an increasingly unfavorable public opinion environment.
