After Roma-Inter, Inter Channel interviewed Frank de Boer
“We didn’t deserve to lose this game, but we made too many errors, especially in the first half when we gave away too many chances to Roma. The attitude was good and in the second half it was the Inter I want to see. We were in control in the second half but a naive foul led to us conceding the goal for 2-1.”
“We must learn how to manage the 90 minutes better. If we reduce the number of errors we make, we’ll win more often. We were compact after the break and conceded fewer chances. Roma are a top side and if you make too many errors, it’s difficult to bring home three points. During the interval I told my players that we had to be less sloppy. We did that and there were no problems. We only need to improve on this aspect because the best opportunities for the opposition came from our mistakes. This happened partly because some players weren’t in top condition, like Joao Mario and Cristian Ansaldi.
The Dutchman then had a few comments to say about a few individual players: “As for Stefan Jovetic’s substitute appearance, he trained really well during the week and when a player shows me positive signals, it’s right that they get a chance to contribute to the team. Icardi worked really well for his team-mates and we didn’t cross the ball to him as well as we could have done.”
