Inter, Inzaghi and the derby: “A victory in tactics and intelligence”

The Nerazzurri coach after the clear success in the semi-final of the Italian Cup: “I listened to constructive criticism, not those created on purpose. This derby was worth a final and we won it on the pitch. We are in the running for everything, we don’t want to give up”

After such a derby, one can only smile and look to the near future with optimism. Simone Inzaghi is obviously satisfied with his Inter at the end of the match, the result of the work of the last few weeks and the whole season: “We played with intelligence and tactics and then we hit at the right moment. This derby was worth a final and we won it tonight. on the field”.

On several fronts

The success against Milan tells of another piece that seems to fit in the right place in an increasingly harmonious mosaic overall: “We have been working for the Scudetto since 8 July, we won the Super Cup in January and next month we will have another final in which we care a lot, plus the last few days of the championship “. Inzaghi’s summary is perfect, simple and respectful of the splendid balance that one month after the end of the season can be drawn up while waiting for the latest results. However, the difficulties in this 2022 were not lacking and give further value to the fruits collected by the coach: “We did well to stay clear with a very demanding schedule. Against Liverpool in the Champions League we had spent a lot on a physical and mental level, then we lost a few points but we worked hard and now the last matches are waiting for us. ” Inzaghi also chooses to remove a pebble from his shoe: “Correa’s choice ‘guessed’? After the championship derby we talked for a month and a half about my changes, which, moreover, had won us the Super Cup at the beginning of 2022. I have listened to and accepted constructive criticisms, but not those created on purpose “.

Enemies and friends

Opponents of yesterday, today and throughout the season are the Rossoneri, with the fates of their cousins ​​crossing again many times: “We know that the path will be long with AC Milan leading the league, we must chase. From the derby on the first leg we also worked a lot with the videos and today we did well both in the possession and non-possession phases “. A final hint, absolutely not secondary for the coach, is that relating to the sold out of Giuseppe Meazza: “An incredible audience, it was since 2011 that Inter did not go to the final and the fans will help us a lot from now to the end of the season. “.
