VIDEO: Lautaro and Conte settle their differences with boxing

After their disagreement during last night’s match, Lautaro Martinez and Antonio Conte decided to settle their differences through boxing.

There was a moment last night during Inter’s match against AS Roma, when Lautaro Martinez seemed angry towards Antonio Conte. The gaffer decided to take him off the pitch when the striker was feeling great to continue playing. Both men got into a heated argument as the player stepped off the pitch. It was clear that Conte wasn’t happy with Lautaro’s reaction as they started yelling at each other right in front of the cameras. All Inter players asked both of them to bury the hatchet through any means necessary.

This is a squad that is currently going through some heavy institutional issues with its owner. In recent days, he requested all the players to take a massive pay cut due to Inter’s economic problems. Players reluctantly agreed to this just because they recently won the Serie A title. Internal problems are simply not what the Italian squad needs right now, which is why they decided to prevent any further issues.

Lautaro and Conte box out their differences.

On the next day after Lautaro and Conte’s altercation, we saw a brilliant reaction from both men during practice. With Romelu Lukaku as the MC, all Inter players decided to build an improvised ring on the pitch. The Belgian striker asked both of them to slip some boxing gloves on and be part of a small boxing match. Although this was staged in order to respond to rumors about their dramatic encounter last night, this reaction was brilliant on both sides.

It proves that any heat of the moment arguments stay on the pitch and their relationship is stronger than previously thought. Both Lautaro and Conte hugged it out after all the gimmick was over and the training session continued as scheduled. Watching moments like these are another proof that Antonio Conte truly is one of the best managers out there.
