Bologna, Ndoye: “We deserved at least a draw. Unfortunately, this is football”

Bologna, Ndoye: "Meritavamo almeno il pareggio. Purtroppo il calcio è questo"

The exterior of Bologna, Dan Ndoyecommented on the defeat against Monaco: “This evening we deserved at least a draw and instead we conceded this goal from a corner. Unfortunately, football is also this, sometimes it’s frustrating. We can’t do anything but continue like this, work hard and try to be more incisive in front of goal. I too personally can do better, I work well for the team but I struggle like the others to find the goal. The fans are always incredible, this evening we wanted to win for them too. We want to make up for it next time against Roma.”

Juventus, Koopmeiners: “I always want to win. It doesn’t matter if I score a goal.”

Juventus, Koopmeiners: “Voglio sempre vincere. Non conta che faccia gol io"

Teun Koopmeiners, Juventus midfielderspoke to Sky Sports at the end of the Champions League match drawn 1-1 on the Lille pitch.

Says the Dutchman: “I always want to win. We did it against Udinese and I was happy. Then, of course, I want to score goals for myself and to help the team. I did it twice in the first half, it’s a shame they disallowed them. Let’s play differently than I did at Atalanta, we have many new players and we have to find rhythm and automaticity. I do everything to win. However, it’s not important that I score.”

* already played the 4th round

Towards Inter-Napoli, Paolillo: “Lukaku? He will play to show Inzaghi how good he is…”

Verso Inter-Napoli, Paolillo: "Lukaku? Giocherà per mostrare ad Inzaghi quanto è bravo..."

Live at New Point Radioduring Punto Nuovo Sport, spoke Ernesto Paolilloformer director of Inter: “It is still early to define the Inter-Napoli Scudetto match, the championship is still long and there are at least 4 teams that can win the title. Winning will certainly be fundamental for one and the other team. The match against Atalanta was a deserved defeat, where the Goddess played spectacularly and surprised Napoli. Each match is different, but the Azzurri will come to the match against Inter super strong the Nerazzurri don’t have the same amnesia we saw against Juventus, Venezia and all the others…”.

“Lukaku? I hope he recovers, he’s a great champion. I realize he’s been a bit dull lately, but he has a problem with his physical condition. And now against Inzaghi he will have one more reason to show how good he is, which is why I fear him a lot in view of Inter… Let’s hope he doesn’t wake up against us (laughs ed.)…”.

“What a welcome for Conte and Lukaku? It wouldn’t be right to boo Conte, who brought Inter back to very high levels and brought the club back to victory. Just as it wouldn’t be right to boo Lukaku, even if it must be him and certainly not Inter to have some regrets. Especially after his performance in the Champions League final against City. The Serie A has become very balanced Scudetto until the end. Juventus has focused on good players and a very good coach. I know Thiago Motta well, having had him as a player at Inter. He is proving his value as a coach even more than as a footballer Conte? I like them both very much, I would take them both.”

Simeone pampers Griezmann: “We will enjoy every moment until the day he leaves”

Simeone coccola Griezmann: "Ci godremo ogni momento fino al giorno in cui andrà via"

Next December for Diego Simeone it will be 13 years of Atletico Madrid. An era, that of ‘Cholo’, which still doesn’t seem to want to end, despite the various rumors that rained down from the sky during his tenure as coach of the rojiblancos between Inter and PSG, but not only that. Yet on the symbolic image it represents for the world Athletes he didn’t want to focus attention on himself.

“I have nothing strange to comment on – said Simeone in a press conference on the eve of the match against PSG in the Champions League -, only that what I do I do with passion. I have no particular commitments to anyone. I have had the great fortune of working with a previous technical staff who helped me a lot, an extraordinary group of players and the great fortune of being part of a club that has always supported me with the expectations we had to win. Players who followed me in my ideas and people who have always loved and respected me.”

Speaking of Atletico icons, Simeone took a moment to say sweet words about Antoine Griezmann: “I owe only gratitude to the footballer. We met him when he was 22 years old, when he arrived at the club. We grew up together both at the club and in his national team. The other day he told me that he has reached 400 matches, and I was the coach who made him play 400 times. I like his way of life and he continues to give us talent, hierarchy, personality… We will enjoy every moment as long as he is with us and when the day comes leaves, we will accompany him because he will be one of the best in Atlético’s history.”

Leao returns as a protagonist in Milan. And on social media he writes: “Shit didn’t stop me”

Leao torna protagonista nel Milan. E sui social scrive: "La merda non mi ha fermato"

Night to remember for a long time for Milan, but also for Rafael Leaowho returned to have an impact when he returned to the starting lineup, in the Rossoneri’s great feat on the Real Madrid pitch. The Portuguese winger was the author of a great performance, with an assist, and at the end of the match he expressed his happiness and his feelings of joy on his profile Instagram.

In particular, the last image of a roundup posted by Leao is strikingin which we read the sentence: “I was in pain and agitated at the same time. I just made sure the shit didn’t stop me.”

The best night in Milan’s recent history: beat Real Madrid 3-1 at the Bernabeu

La notte più bella nella storia recente del Milan: battuto 3-1 il Real Madrid al Bernabeu

Milan awakens from recent difficulties on the most beautiful night of the seasonone of the greatest in recent years. At the Bernabeu it is Rossoneri’s enjoyment, Real Madrid must give way to the Rossoneri’s celebration and the final 1-3.

A great response to his coach Fonseca comes from the special observer, Leao. Proposed again from the first minute, the Portuguese responded with a man of the match performance… Or almost. Rating 7.5 in the triumphant Rossoneri report cards at the Bernabeu, better than him just the coach, who stages a well-elaborated and perfected plan to the maximum, and Tijani Reijnders, author of a capital performance.

Fonseca can celebrate and he has reason to. The Portuguese coach enjoys the triumph and, in the post-match analysis, compares the difficulties that Serie A matches cause compared to Champions League nights: “I have to be honest: these matches are totally different from the ones we have in Serie A. It’s Milan that I want, but we can’t always be the same team in Serie A. Only those in Italy understand this: here there is no all-out man-to-man team and for this reason I have to be careful when these comparisons are made. In Europe we can be this type of team, but often in Italy there is no possibility of playing this type of matches.”

Inzaghi: “Only we have this calendar.” Inter-Arsenal, the day before and the latest training sessions

Inzaghi: "Solo noi abbiamo questo calendario". Inter-Arsenal, la vigilia e le ultime di formazione

Turnover yes, but not robust. Simone Inzaghi thus defines the rotations that his will face Intercalled to host theArsenal on the fourth day of the Champions League. The Nerazzurri, four days away from the big championship match against Napoli, have to deal with another challenge with a high level of difficulty. And crucial to chasing qualification among the top eight of the top rankings.

Inzaghi: “In the last eight, seven wins and one draw”. The Nerazzurri coach responds thus to those who ask him where his Inter can improve, and excludes too many calculations: “I think match after match, today my priority is Arsenal and the lineup will be decided on the basis of this. Unfortunately we had Milan, Juventus and Napoli after the Champions League. We are the only Italian team involved in the cups to have this type of calendar – he says in the press conference – even the new format is more complicated, before you prepared three matches and now you have to study eight different opponents, without be able to reason about it classification”. As for English football, given the recent links with Manchester United, Inzaghi doesn’t run away: “It fascinates me, there were also contacts in my time at Lazio, but I was happy at Lazio and I’m happy at Inter.”

Arteta: “We want to demonstrate that we are at Inter’s level.” If Matteo Darmian is alongside Inzaghi, the Arsenal coach speaks with Bukayo Saka, increasingly leader of the Gunners. Who have to deal with the recent resignation of sporting director Edu Gaspar: “”The owners’ ideas are clear and ambitious, we have a quality team and we won’t stop working. We will move forward, we thank him but we have to move forward: that’s how it works – explains the coach – we have to demonstrate tomorrow evening that we are capable of beating them. I think Inter has a great identity and this is thanks to its coach. He knows how to get players to occupy spaces in unpredictable ways, it’s a problem we also face in the Premier League and we’ll see how to do it tomorrow.”

The latest Inter-Arsenal lineup. Inzaghi will rest five very starting players: Bastoni is not 100%, along with him Barella, Thuram, Dimarco and Mkhitaryan should remain out. Calhanoglu will return from the 1st minute: the new duo of Lautaro and Taremi will lead the attack. For the two, so far, they have shared 131 minutes: but never from the beginning. Arteta has to deal with Rice’s defection: Odegaard returns and must regain his fitness.

Inter (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, De Vrij, Bisseck; Dumfries, Frattesi, Calhanoglu, Zielinski, Mkhitaryan, Darmian; Taremi, Lautaro. Coach: Inzaghi.
Arsenal (4-4-2): Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber; Saka, Partey, Merino, Martinelli; Havertz, Trossard. Coach: Arteta.

Bologna loses again. 0-1 against Monaco: a lot of regret and zero points

Il Bologna perde ancora. 0-1 contro il Monaco: tanto rammarico e zero punti

Another defeat in the Champions League for Vincenzo Italiano’s Bologna who after a good game against Monaco fell in the 87th minute with Kehrer’s goal on a dead ball. Much regret for the rossoblù team, who in addition to not having taken any points, also failed to break the deadlock in terms of goals scored. After four games still no goals in Europe for the Bolognese, who will need a miracle to try to reach the top 24 of the table.

The words of Italian.
“In this competition we play against teams superior to us who are not showing it 100% because we are good at putting them in difficulty. We have to seize the positive ideas. We keep fighting. I have just looked at the four clear situations with the staff to take the lead and if we don’t have the ability to put it in there is a final ‘blunder’. However, there is no risk: Roma are preparing for tomorrow, a difficult match that we will analyze carefully to ‘go dancing somewhere’ right, but I think that seeing the boys complaining in the Champions League means that we are doing something good.”

The words of Adi Hutter.
The match lasts 90 minutes. If you analyze the whole match I have to say that we deserved the victory. Bologna played well, both teams fought and didn’t create many scoring opportunities. I’m happy with the ten points we gained.”
