The Inter defender, Stefan de Vrijin his press conference on the eve of the match against Red Star, also spoke about the victory in Udine which saw the Nerazzurri get back on their feet after the painful defeat in the derby against Milan: “We suffered a bad defeat, unfortunately. We knew it was very important get up immediately, on a difficult pitch, against a team that was also healthy and had achieved excellent results. We knew how important it was, we did good things and some less so, in the end we were a team.
Ups and downs from Monza to Udine, passing through City and Milan. How come?
“I think they are all different games, for example the one against Monza was totally different from the one against City. In Monza you play against a team that puts everyone behind them and we were a bit slow, not good and we didn’t succeed In the end, we took home a point. It was a very different match against City, they are a team that often puts you on the defensive: we were all good at defending together and we put in an excellent performance, I’m sure. all separate, each different from the other”.
Some have compared this start of the season to that of two years ago, with a different performance between the championship and the Champions League, but also many missed goals up front and a few conceded too many. Can it be like this?
“I think we have to leave the past where it is, behind us. He’s talking about two years ago, this is a new season: our start could certainly have been better, but it will be a very long season and it won’t be the same as the one. As I said before , we have to push, work, try to improve.”
