At San Siro, Inter and Hellas Verona offered a thrilling finale, marked by numerous incidents. In the end, Simone Inzaghi's team won thanks to Frattesi's strike, but at the 100th minute, Thomas Henry had the chance to tie the game for Verona. He had already scored one goal, the temporary 1-1, but he couldn't replicate from eleven meters. The French striker missed the penalty, hitting the post with Sommer already beaten. A mistake of enormous significance in the fate of Hellas that sparked indecent comments on the web from fans, with death threats against Henry and his family.
Thomas Henry did not delay his response through a post on his Instagram profile: «To all the people who think they know football better than anyone else and who insult my family wishing them death, I hope you can find peace one day in your little life. Mistakes are part of the sport and so I will continue to work to be better than before. One day you win, one day you lose, one day you score, one day you miss, this is my life as a footballer and I am proud to have been able to score my second career goal in this San Siro stadium after a ligament rupture and after starting to play football at the age of 15 in the last French division. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Always head high, always forward, always higher».
