MILANO – A ko that certifies the exclusion from the next one Champions League dell’Atalanta, a San Siro vince l’Inter Of Inzaghi for 3-2. At the final whistle this is the comment by Gasperini to the microphones of Sky: “I honestly expected a charged Inter who would have some difficulties during the match and not at the start. They started very strong and I think that after that bad impact, we managed to find the right measures and build a good game. Lukaku? The value of Luke It is huge. We badly marked him, then we took the measures and managed to contain him. Europe? It’s important, we have in our hands the possibility of reaching the Europa League and it’s a huge goal. We have the opportunity to improve by targeting Europe for the sixth year out of seven.”

Gasperini and the future with Atalanta

About the future Gasperini surprises the Nerazzurri: “The future is Sunday, because a goal like the Europa League would be something important. It’s a group that is still able to be competitive, it has pulled off a very good season in a balanced and difficult championship. We have always pulled away from Fiorentina, Turin and Monza. This year it seemed that Atalanta had to fight for the Champions League. I don’t see it that way, but I give credit to the players who have done something very good. It’s difficult to discuss the Champions League right now. I have a relationship of trust and gratitude with the club, then in football there are different opinions. I don’t know if we will find a meeting point”. The Nerazzurri coach concludes: “There are the players who go onto the pitch. In terms of points, the team scored 61 and they are all situations that I share with the players, otherwise it would all be too comfortable. Atalanta cannot be a top tier team right now and he proved it again tonight. Often the work of these guys has not been valued.”
