Previous

There are two precedents of Inter against Crvena Zvezda and date back to the 1980/1981 edition of the Champions Cup. The two teams met in the quarter-finals, and it was tough for the Nerazzurri. The first leg at San Siro ended 1-1, with Bersellini's Inter taking the lead at the end of the first half with Case, only to be reached a quarter of an hour from the end by the goal of Repcic. On the return leg, in front of 88 thousand spectators, it was Carlo's decisive goal Muraro in the 13th minute of the first half to hand over qualification to Inter. In the semi-final, however, the Nerazzurri were eliminated by Real Madrid, losing 2-0 in the first leg and winning 1-0 in the return leg. The trophy then went to Liverpool who narrowly defeated the Merengues in the final.

The words of Simone Inzaghi

Simone Inzaghi is finding again Inter, but it's time to pay more attention to the defensive phase where a few too many goals have been conceded. The two from Udine have been scrutinized by the coach in recent days, with the aim of reducing errors as much as possible. Inzaghi, however, is satisfied with the performance in Friuli: "Winning is difficult, winning again is even more so - Inzaghi's words in the press conference - In this beginning all the teams have had moments of difficulty and in fact there have always been different leaders. They are all trying to improve and we are doing it too. On Saturday the team gave a great performance". And it was precisely on the goals conceded that he focused Inzaghi, but the team's growth remains: "On Saturday I saw Inter again, who I had already seen in Manchester and with Atalanta – the coach continues – We must not concede anything because if those two chances ofUdinese If they hadn't come in today we wouldn't be talking about this. We conceded the same xG as last year and it means that we need to pay more attention".

Then in detail, here is the analysis of the goals conceded in Udine. Contributory negligence: "On the first goal Thuram goes up and all the rest of the team has to go up together and in addition to Marco's another man is needed. On the second, however, I read that only one player would be to blame but there is also a coincidence there. At least five could have done better because we conceded a goal from a goalkeeper's throw and everyone could have done more". Now there is the Crvena Zvezda, a match to win also trying to take care of the goal difference. With the new formula, a single round and eight regular season games, it is difficult to take stock after two matches: "With the old formula you could take stock after two games, now it is everyone against everyone in an exciting formula that presents more difficulties. We know that the calendar is not very simple but we will face it game by game at our best". Alongside Inzaghi Stefan De Vrij was present and has a chance to start against the Serbians of Belgrade: "We are aware that we have to improve, but not only us defenders - he commented - We still come from a victory in Udine that redeems the derby and it was very important to get back up. We did positive things and others to improve". And when asked how he explains Inter's ups and downs, the Dutch centre-back responded like this: "All the games are different, City attack and you know you have to do certain things, Monza stays behind and we were slow to attack and then conceded a goal from an action. We have to stay focused on the present and do our best, thinking game by game".
