Inter Milan took down Bayern Munich 2-1…
After his team’s 2-1 victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League, Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi was thrilled, but did not want to bask too much in the glory of the victory.
“I’m happy with the win, we played a great game and we don’t have to focus on the result, but instead on the performance we put in against a technically strong, cohesive, and great opponent. In a week’s time we have to perform in the same way, but tonight we’re happy with this performance,” Inzaghi said (as captured by FCBayern.com).
For former Bayern Munich goalkeeper Yann Sommer, the result was well-deserved.
“It was hard work, but it’s an important win for us. We did a lot of things well, were efficient in front of goal and defended well. Of course, we also had two or three difficult moments, but that’s part of the game. It’s not the first time I’ve played against Bayern, so I know that you have to endure a lot, especially when they’re behind, and we had to endure a lot in the second half today. They created a lot of good situations,” said Sommer.
Finally, for Inter Milan midfielder Hakan Çalhanoğlu, the “never say die” attitude that his team showed was impressive.
“It’s not easy to play here in Munich. We tried to keep the ball in play. That was particularly good in the first half. We defended well, that’s the most important thing. We lost a bit of confidence in the second half, but we didn’t give up. We knew we could score another goal. Next week is going to be pandemonium for us, we want to progress to the next round,” Çalhanoğlu remarked.
