Inter Milan secured a convincing 4-0 win against Atalanta, showcasing their dominance in Serie A. Manager Simone Inzaghi expressed his satisfaction with the team’s performance in a post-match interview with DAZN.
Inzaghi praised his players for their excellent technical display, particularly highlighting the first half-hour of the game. He noted, “The boys were very good. We played very well technically, having an excellent first 30 minutes.” The coach acknowledged that the team’s intensity dropped slightly in the last quarter of the first half but commended their strong return in the second half.
The victory against a formidable opponent like Atalanta was particularly gratifying for Inzaghi. He emphasized the team’s intense four-day training period leading up to the match, which he felt contributed significantly to their success.
When questioned about some excessive flair in the team’s play, Inzaghi agreed that it could be a potential limitation. However, he defended his players, reminding that they were facing a strong team and often had to adapt their positions on the field.
Inzaghi specifically praised Marcus Thuram’s performance and work ethic, noting his rapid adaptation to Italian football. He also commended the contributions of other attackers, including new signings Taremi and Arnautovic.
Looking ahead, Inzaghi stressed the importance of maintaining high standards and acknowledged the competitive landscape of Serie A. He stated, “Our competitors have made huge investments, but we won’t give up and we’ll fight until the end.” The coach refrained from singling out any specific team as Inter’s main rival, noting that many clubs have significantly strengthened their squads.
