PRAGUE (CZECH REPUBLIC) (ITALPRESS) – “We know the importance of this match. On the lineup I still have some doubts to clear tomorrow morning, we come from the match with Empoli, I will have to try to make some choices.” Simone Inzaghi and his Inter team are in Prague to face tomorrow in Champions a Sparta side that “has not played official matches since December 15 but has done well in the last two friendlies. They are a physical team, I played here a couple of times as a player and it is never easy to play in this stadium.” Inter are close to direct qualification to the Champions League round of 16, in the league they are -3 behind Napoli but with one match less, yet it seems that in Italy the proper merits of the Piacenza coach and his boys are not being recognized. “There are no such problems, I don’t like people talking about me,” the Nerazzurri coach retorts, “We have to talk about Inter and my players, who are making a beautiful path. We have to continue like this: we want to be protagonists until the last, in the Champions League and in the league where we have to defend the Scudetto with all our strength, against strong and competitive opponents. In Europe we have been protagonists in recent years: it is our DNA, we have to play as many games as possible, without creating the alibi of too many commitments. There are many, but we like to face these matches: I have no doubt, any player who goes on the field gives us a great hand. We have some elements out, I need everyone because we play one match after another: it’s not easy, but it happens to many teams.” In this regard, Inzaghi let it be known that “Acerbi is working well, he seemed on the verge of returning with Empoli. He still can’t push to the maximum, he won’t even be there with Lecce: he will have to do additional individual work. I am calm, he will be back soon and will give us a big hand. Do I expect anything from the market? The company, the president, Ausilio, Baccin, they are always close to us and monitoring. The players I have right now I would not change them for anything in the world.” – photo Ipa Agency -(ITALPRESS).
