Simone Inzaghi and Kosta Runjaic spoke at the end of Inter-Udinese, the quarter-final of the Italian Cup won by the Nerazzurri at San Siro. The goals, both scored in the first half, by Arnautovic and Asllani were decisive.
Victory and clean sheet for Simone Inzaghi’s Inter, triumphant with a clear 2-0 against Udinese. The Nerazzurri coach spoke after the match, where he analyzed his team’s excellent victory: “It’s a great sign, then it’s an important match, when I say I have 25 starters I really believe itthen I have to make choices for the good of Inter, but the boys were all very good from the first minute.”
“We know there are difficulties every day, but I am lucky enough to have a great work groupknowing that every 3 days we have a match, then we have the Super Cup, but we have some excellent signs.”
“We improve every day, we had an excellent match against Lazio but we could have done better there too. Tonight we had a worthy opponent, I made 8 substitutions but it didn’t showUdinese has important players like Sanchez and Lucca, the team has always been focused on distances.”
Returning to thinking about the championship and the Scudetto contenders: “We are racing, but other teams are racing with usthen I also think of Fiorentina, Lazio, Juventus, Milan and Bologna. The teams have strengthened. You have to be good at recovering, it’s not easy, I’m alternating a lot for that too, we have some problems behind us, we’ve been missing Pavard and Acerbi for a month, I also asked Bastoni for a sacrifice this evening. Bisseck and Darmian are giving guarantees to everyone.”
Is the goal on the Taremi-Arnautovic axis instinct or the coach’s schemes?: “They were very good, there is little pattern, they were both very goodthey are two international players, their performances do not surprise me, as do those of Lautaro, Thuram and Correa, they must continue like this knowing that they are important for us.”
Runjaic: “It’s normal to have ups and downs”
Udinese, however, fails to achieve the feat at San Siro. In a post-match interview, the Friulian coach, Kosta Runjaic, commented on the match as follows: “We gave a great gift on the first goal, it shouldn’t have happened. You can’t make this type of mistake against Inter.”
“We are in a process, it is normal that there are ups and downs and there will also be in the future. We must focus on the work and the details, learning from every mistake.”
