Simone Inzaghi analyzed the hard-fought victory of Interwho needed more time to win 2-1 a Parma inside Joseph Meazza for the round of 16 Italian Cup.
“It was a difficult game, I think we had a good game and they scored on the only shot Parma had,” said the 46-year-old first.
“It’s complicated, I would have preferred not to play 120 minutes, but the same thing happened last season with Empoli, so let’s look to the future with confidence,” he continued in dialogue with Sport Mediaset.
Furthermore, when asked about the changes, the DT replied: “They depend on the result. Whoever played gave a good answer, we must continue like this. Our performance in the Champions League exceeded expectations, we lost a few points in Serie A, but We need everyone with a busy schedule.”
As for the injured Romelu Lukaku, who was in a box watching his teammates, Inzaghi commented: “It’s clear that Romelu is a very important player for us, we wanted him at all costs, and unfortunately he suffered a more serious injury of his career”.
“He came back after the World Cup, trained very well and then had this inflammation. Tomorrow he will rest and we will try to bring him back to his best level, because it is a great added value for the team. If he had been fit, we could have added those more points than we have lost so far in Serie A,” he concluded.
