Bergomi on Inter-Como: «Thuram above all, it's the Inter we knew»

Speaking in the Sky Sport studios, Bergomi commented on Inter‘s victory over Como with a clear judgment on the team’s approach: “The Achilles’ heel was the approach, today they approached very well: they attacked Como, they created a lot.”

The former footballer then highlighted one name above all: “With one player above all, Thuram. Then when they counterattacked with this Spence with so much pace, it’s the Inter we knew before.” A clear reference to the return to a recognizable intensity, after difficulties in previous outings.

On the physical and mental level, Bergomi drew a comparison with the matches against Venezia and Milan: “If you think about the previous two matches and then the next two, they seem fresher: it’s the mind that commands the body, so once you get rid of some misunderstandings you play matches without conceding goals against Feyenoord and Como.”

A final note also for the opponents: “I give Como some mitigating circumstances: to hurt Inter you need the wingers and they didn’t have them.” In the final minutes the team allowed a few counterattacks, but Bergomi judged the Nerazzurri’s defensive performance overall as positive.
