Simone Inzaghi, the head coach of Inter Milan, commented on his side's dominant 6-0 win against Lazio, noting that some critics had been waiting for his team to stumble.
Returning to the Stadio Olimpico, where he spent most of his playing and coaching career with Lazio, Inzaghi remained composed despite the emphatic victory. Goals came from six different players: Hakan Calhanoglu, Federico Dimarco, Nicolo Barella, Denzel Dumfries, Carlos Augusto, and Marcus Thuram.
Inzaghi said, "Most importantly, we defeated a team that was in excellent form. We maintained our structure in the opening 20 minutes, raised our level, and after the third goal, everything became more comfortable." He praised his squad, stating, "These players have been putting in a tremendous effort for me for the past three and a half years, and I am incredibly proud to coach them."
Addressing Inter's strength, Inzaghi remarked, "The result will always speak on the pitch. After the Leverkusen game, we prepared well because we knew Lazio's quality." He added, "We now have a postponed match, two more games in Serie A, and the Italian Super Cup, which makes things even more complicated."
In conclusion, Inzaghi emphasized Inter's consistency in recent months, acknowledging their stable performances but remaining cautious about the challenges ahead.
