Danilo D’Ambrosio returned from injury today for Inter in their Serie A game away to SPAL. Inter drew 1-1 conceding late on in a game they needed to win. After the game the defender spoke to Inter TV: “All that remains is a lot of bitterness. We must do better. We will have to face starting from Tuesday all the problems from our recent bad run of form. We hill do this face to face. We then need to try and give our response on the pitch straight away Saturday evening against Crotone. We weren’t phenomenons before but we aren’t out of the Champions League places. We will have to battle it out with all the other teams fighting it out for the third and fourth places in the league, trying to get ahead of them in the process.”

When asked about his injury he replied: “to return sooner than planned, you have to double your workload. Both Miranda and I decided not to have holidays during the winter break in an attempt to get back to the pitch playing sooner than originally planned. We all feel good to be a part of this group, but we would feel better if we could win a game. All I need now is just to try and get my physical condition back up.”

When asked about his place today with Cancelo playing on the left side of defence he replied: “Both of us are able to play either on the right or the left hand side. Spalletti even told us before that he may even switch us over during the game. We should not rest and settle for what we have in the game. We should have tried to finish the game off. Even against Roma, when we scored the equaliser we should have tried to go forward and find the winner. We lacked the desire and the awareness to go and make it 2-0.”
