Mazzarri: “If we want to win we can’t only play in a gently manner”

“Today, we could even have lost, but at this time I look at how the team behaves on the pitch. Too bad we did not win during the 90 minutes, as we were close to 2-1  more than once. The results, however, should be forgotten. The team took to the pitch just how I like it to, we tried to put Real Madrid in difficulties  and in the second half we were even able to do better. To win, though, you have to have that extra desire, you realize how their players came so hard and I told my guys that if we want to win we can’t only play in a gently manner, because sometimes the results are obtained with malice and decision, the one that we showed in the second portion of the game.” Walter Mazzarri talked to Inter Channel after the victory on penalties at Berkeley. “We have to try to do that against Manchester United.” He also spoke of individual players: “Obi is doing well unlike past years, he’s a reborn boy. Botta played a great game, I haven’t seen him so determined for a long time. D’Ambrosio has also grown. The same goes for Vidic who played a great game. Jonathan played well as a midfielder, as well as Ranocchia and Juan. Vidic? He has always played with four in defense, but he who knows football knows that the team is more protected with central defenders. When we play with four he will be used and can only do better.” Source: fcinternews.it
