After the very difficult lesson against the Nerazzurri, the analysis of the Spanish coach: “Heavy knockout, we have to continue working”

“The result is heavy, but from a footballing point of view I didn’t see a huge difference between the two teams.” The Como coach, Cesc Fabregas, said it to everyone’s amazement after the 4-0 defeat against Inter at San Siro, speaking after the match on Dazn. “I saw two world-class attackers – he explained -. During the match I thought about changing and doing another type of pressing to protect the defence. My head told me not to do it. I think this evening can make us grow a lot: you don’t grow with compliments, with a heavy defeat you learn more and appreciate everything better. We have to continue working. In our best moment we conceded a somewhat embarrassing goal from a dead ball. After the third we gave up, and it’s normal given the age of the boys.”

It’s not easy, after a match like this, “to make an analysis of the match – Fabregas further explained -. The result is very heavy, I honestly struggle to speak because I know that I can be annoying by saying these things. I know, I’m stupid, I’ll be a loser, because the result counts. But I think that after a victory you don’t grow much, after a heavy defeat like today’s you grow more”. And again: “We lost against a very strong team, I can also play 6-3-1 and lose, but I prefer to lose playing like that. We do many things well but they are so good that they always find the solution. Dimarco and Bastoni play by heart, they make me learn a lot as a coach. Very strong Inter, I will definitely come to watch Inter-Liverpool to continue learning from them.”
