Inter Milan Boss Praises All Team After Red Star Cruising: “Excellent Game”

Simone Inzaghi had urged Inter Milan to build on their performance in the build-up to their UEFA Champions League fixture against Red Star Belgrade.

His players obliged as the Nerazzurri dismantled the perennial Serbian SuperLiga champions 4-0 at Giuseppe Meazza.

During his post-match interview, as reported by FCInterNews, Inzaghi congratulated his players for an ‘excellent game.’

It was all Inter last night.

Hakan Calhanoglu’s headline-making free-kick opened the scoring in the 11th minute, setting the tone for Inter’s rip-roaring victory.

Subsequently, the Nerazzurri wasted numerous clear-cut chances to double their advantage before half-time.

However, it was only a matter of time before Inter would add to their tally.

Marko Arnautovic opened the floodgate with his seasonal breakthrough in the 59th minute.

From there, the only question was – where would Inter stand at the final whistle?

Lautaro Martinez had to score off the bench to increase his confidence before Mehdi Taremi found a well-deserved goal from the spot.

After the match, Inzaghi had nothing but praise for his side.

Simone Inzaghi Congratulates Inter Milan Players for Excellent Game Against Red Star

“We had two excellent games, and as I said in Udine, we played a good game tonight, albeit with some flaws,” Inzaghi stated.

“Tonight, we had everything to lose because we had to follow up on the performance in Manchester.

“We found a team that defended low, but we were good; we moved the ball, risking almost nothing. I congratulated the boys,” he maintained.

Of all Inter players last night, Taremi was arguably the most eye-catching.

Thanks to that, Inzaghi reserved special praise for him and another backup striker, Marko Arnautovic.

“Tonight, I received some very good news from him, but not only from him,” the Inter coach insisted.

“I put on the field guys who had played a little less, but I had no doubts.

“Arna was also good, as were the players who came on.”
