Inter Milan & Netherlands Star Admits ‘In The End We Didn’t Deserve To Win The Serie A Title’ | OneFootball

Stefan de Vrij admits that Inter Milan “didn’t deserve” to win the Serie A title after their failure to clinch it on the final day.

The Dutchman spoke to Italian broadcaster DAZN, via FCInterNews, after his team’s win against Como.

Inter Milan did do their bit this evening. They got a controlled 2-0 victory to close out the season away to Como.

However, the Nerazzurri were relying on Cagliari doing them a favour in the Serie A title race.

Napoli had dropped points in each of their last two matches against Genoa and Parma. Therefore, Inter could perhaps have been hoping that Cagliari could also hold the Partenopei.

However, in the end Napoli won by the same scoreline that Inter did.

Therefore, the Nerazzurri were unable to catch up to their title rivals.

Inter will have plenty of regrets for how their league season went. There were many positive performances and results – but also far too many carelessly dropped points.

Therefore, Inter have not been able to defend their crown from last season.

Stefan de Vrij scored Inter’s opener and put in a fine defensive display against Cagliari this evening.

However, it was nevertheless a disappointing and bittersweet evening considering the result in Naples.

“We did our part,” the 33-year-old said after the match.

“We knew that we were depending on the result of another match.”

He continued, “We couldn’t do more than what we did today.”

“Now we have to leave it behind us,” Stefan de Vrij reflected.

“In the end we didn’t deserve it,” the former Lazio defender said of the Serie A title. “Whoever’s top of the table after 38 matches deserves it.”

“Nevertheless, there’s a feeling that we could have done a lot more in the league.”

“Now we have a massive desire to play a great final next week,” de Vrij added. “We’ve done very well in the Champions League, and we’ll do everything well to end with a bang.”
