Inter Milan Coach Simone Inzaghi: “A Season That Feels Us With A Lot Of Emotions” | OneFootball

Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi delivered his verdict on his side’s phenomenal Champions League success.

Speaking to Prime Video via FCInterNews, the 49-year-old hailed Inter’s performance against Bayern Munich.

In one of the most passionate nights in the club’s recent history, the Nerazzurri squeaked past the Bavarians.

Indeed, the reigning Scudetto holders held Vincent Kompany’s side to a 2-2 draw at the San Siro.

Following a 2-1 first-leg win in Munich, it was enough to reach the semi-finals for the second time in three years.

However, fans in attendance had to experience an emotional rollercoaster.

Bayern took the lead through Harry Kane, but Inter regained control of the tie in no time.

For context, Lautaro Martinez and Benjamin Pavard made it 4-2 for the Italians on aggregate.

Though Eric Dier restored Bayern’s hope of pulling off a late turnaround, Inzaghi’s charges stood firm.

“It’s a wonderful evening, experienced at our stadium, in front of our fans, against a very strong team,” Inzaghi started.

“We had to play two great matches, giving everything we had. The boys were fantastic – this is a victory to share with the entire Inter family.

“We move forward in this long season that’s giving us so many emotions.”

Then, Inzaghi hailed Inter’s ‘never give up’ mentality.

“Doing well on this stage is even more satisfying because Bayern never dropped their intensity, but we responded blow for blow.”

As humble as always, Inzaghi refused to take the credit for Inter’s imperious European run.

“The credit goes to the players, who work hard and sacrifice themselves together.

“We’ve been together for four years.

“At the start, we knew we had a strong team but also that we needed to fix some things.

“We’ve managed to win important trophies. It’s a huge satisfaction that rewards the work of myself and the staff.”

Finally, he explained how Marko Arnautovic made him laugh on the touchline.

“We were talking – he took a knock against Cagliari and wasn’t feeling great.

“I asked if he was available to come on, and he said yes, but then I opted for a different change. That shows the unity in this group.

“Even the injured guys on the bench suffered with us. Let’s enjoy nights like this – San Siro was truly emotional.

“Compliments to the boys for what they put on the field against such a strong opponent.”
