After the win against Inter, a delighted Gonzalo Higuaín talks to Sky: “I am very happy, it was an important game: now we leave Inter and Fiorentina behind us. We concede a lot of goals? We will work hard on that aspect of our game to be able to improve against Cagliari. I feel good now, the injury is behind me and I have lots of good years left”. Was this an important result for Benitez? “He is very happy, now we can rest”.
To Premium Calcio, Higuaín added: “Today’s game was like a final, we have left a strong team seven points behind us and now we can try to catch up in the top teams. Problems with our defense? This is something we need to work on. We will try to improve this week, especially when it comes to keeping a clean sheet in the first half”. About Benitez: “He told us to play like we did against Arsenal and we did it well”. Finally a question about why he was forced to leave the game early: “The problem is in my calf, but I have a week to train and recover”.
