Simone Inzaghi words at a press conference after the match at the U-Power Stadium
"First of all, we missed the goal in the beginning. It would have been easier for us"
The Nerazzurri coach’s words at a press conference after Monza-Inter at the U-Power Stadium.
Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan, back in the league after two weeks of national teams, did not go beyond a 1-1 against Monza.
These are his words, collected by Italian website Fcinter1908.it correspondent at U-Power Stadium: "First of all, we missed the goal in the beginning. It would have been easier for us.
We had a good approach, while finding a team that did a good defensive match and it was not easy. We were unable to concretize, we have been technically wrong and a little pretentious in some situations.
In the second half we did less well, we did not create, despite the predominance of the game.
When we went to three strikers we took this Eurogol of Dany Mota that has created difficulties.
We had a great reaction, even close to victory. The draw does not satisfy us, but we must continue to work to recover well for the many close matches".
How is Lautaro? Will he be ready for the next two matches?
"He’s missing the goal. He arrived late, had a little problem, then the national team and could not train well. The attack was the only team with 4 out of 5 in the national team.
We are used to the goals of everyone, tonight we thought to find a goal earlier, but unfortunately it was not so, despite the team a little weak.
We took a great goal, we can accept more than those taken on the first day".
How is Dimarco?
"He was tired, a beginning of cramps. He came from two matches in the national team, but he had trained well and I needed him.
He had to grit his teeth, but there’s no problem".
It was a low-key match today
"We had a great reaction after the goal. We should have had it before, we had a couple of situations not very clear but usually we can concretize.
Last year it was a similar match, but in the first two shots we managed to get it right. So instead the matches are difficult".
Will the Champions League have a different impact on the season?
"We knew it at the draw. We have these two close matches after the break, but I’m quite good because I have all the players available.
The format has changed, it will be a novelty for all of us coaches. We will have to try our best, knowing that we have very difficult matches.
Any opponent is never simple".
How do you judge the Frattesi match?
"I was happy with the game he made, so I did not change it.
It was not easy, it is a half of insertion and spaces were not many. He always participated in both phases and therefore remained on the pitch. He has different characteristics from Barella, but I wouldn’t stand here and watch his performance.
We all had to do better, including me. We have not succeeded, but we must go on working, being positive.
I have all the players available, the doctor has reassured me, so we go ahead with confidence".
