Another great performance and victory for Inter, who temporarily pull ahead by +8 over Milan in the standings. At Sassuolo‘s home, Cristian Chivu‘s team scored a resounding 0-5 and sent yet another signal of strength to the league. The Nerazzurri coach himself, speaking to Dazn, analyzed his team’s success in the post-match interview.
THE MATCH – “At the beginning we suffered from their intensity but we held on and stayed in the game. We knew how to strike at the right moment. Ruthlessness and concreteness become important factors in our growth. The team is more mature, understands the moments, adapts. I take this, there is a lot of maturity and awareness of the work done. We must not forget where we come from and what we have done to get to this point.”
WHAT TO IMPROVE – “We must not be afraid of anything. We need to improve without having the obsession for perfection, which does not exist. We are aware that we are halfway through the marathon and it is a decisive moment. We must also maintain the ambition to be competitive.”
FRATTESI – “Frattesi decisive in the second part of the season? Frattesi, Diouf, Dimarco, the whole group works hard and wants to be protagonists. We need the whole squad and all the players to maintain a certain level and be competitive.”
SCUDETTO – “Percentages? For me, zero. We have 14 matches, there are many teams with the same ambition. There is still work to do and things to prove.”
DERBY D’ITALIA – “Inter-Juventus? A match like all the others, with three points at stake. We are aware that expectations are always high, but I know that the group has ambition and wants to be competitive. We will see how we present ourselves for that match, but certainly with the awareness of what we have done so far.”
