Inter coach Luciano Chivu has decided to keep Martinez as the starting goalkeeper for the late match against Udinese, postponing Ivan Provedel's season debut. The decision comes after Martinez's error during the first Champions League match of the season against Real Madrid, an error that compromised his performance. Chivu emphasized the importance of maintaining Martinez's confidence, considering him still the designated starter. The coach believes it's essential to offer protection and confidence to the goalkeeper to prevent the error from becoming a psychological burden for the rest of the season. Therefore, Provedel will have to wait a little longer before making his debut for the Nerazzurri, a decision that hasn't been fully understood.
