The words of the Nerazzurri coach in the press conference after the triple whistle of the match against Young Boys
Triple whistle at the Stadion Wankdorf in Bern between Young Boys and Inter Milan. Simone Inzaghi arrived in the press room to comment on what happened in the 90 minutes that had just finished.
Here are his considerations gathered by Italian website Fcinter1908.it: "The match was not easy, but we knew that.
They are a physical team, on a pitch on which it's not easy to play. We created many situations, then it got complicated because we didn't scored.
The first penalty taker is Calhanoglu, then Taremi and Arnautovic are both good at kicking, they do it in the national team, and tonight they could have both shot it. Unfortunately Arnautovic missed it, he was very disappointed, but he doesn't have to be. He will continue to be important for us."
Are you happy with the energy management ahead of Sunday's game?
"I am happy with the result and the performance of the boys, who have a huge heart. I am not happy with the Carlos Augusto problem. We have some problems with the squad rotation, but I think that Carlos Augusto's injury is a little bit more than the others seeing the dynamics.
Clearly it will have to be verified, but this situation seems more complex to me. He is a very important player for us. All teams have these problems, the period for us is complicated with close matches."
Is the team rising to the right level at the right time?
“Yes, because the team is doing well and five wins you don't do if you are not at the right level. We are trying to fix something, but in the Champions League we have seven points in three games and we are happy about that.”
Who was the best of the Young Boys?
“They are a physical team, we knew they would create a lot of problems for us. With the new coach they have regained a very good spirit, tonight I was impressed by the goalkeeper. Today with the team I pointed out that he was also good in Lucerne.”
Is there a relationship between the pitch and Carlos' Augusto injury?
“That's something I can't answer, we knew there was this risk. Unfortunately it's part of football and it takes an important player away from us for a while.”
Do you expect to recover any of the other injured players?
"It is very difficult to say, we will try to monitor them day by day as written in the statement.
Asllani will start again from tomorrow, he had a collateral strain and we will also have to see how he will manage the pain when he starts kicking again."
