Former Inter goalkeeper Ivano Bordon has shared his belief that Inter are not entirely out of the race to win the Serie A title following their 2-1 win over Parma on Sunday night.
Inter fell behind early on through a Gervinho goal but managed to overturn the result in the final 10 minutes of the match with thanks to goals from defenders Stefan de Vrij and Alessandro Bastoni.
“At the beginning of the second half Parma could not make themselves more dangerous than the first and I thought that Inter would soon draw level. Parma fell off a lot in the second half,” Bordon explained in an interview with Italian radio station Radio Sportiva yesterday afternoon.
The former Italian national team player then went on to speak about Inter manager Antonio Conte, who had to watch the match from the stands due to suspension.
“In the stands he was suffering a lot, I think Inter and all the teams will improve as the days go by. There will be those who will be slower to acquire their physical condition, others faster.”
Next he discussed the Serie A title race: “Scudetto? Anything can still happen. Inter are eight points behind Juve but their schedule for the next two days is favourable.”
In conclusion Bordon spoke on Christian Eriksen, who Inter recruited in the most recent January transfer window.
“He will be able to adapt quickly and can be an additional weapon for this Inter.”
Bordon spent 13 years of his playing career with Inter between 1970 and 1983 and after retiring he also spent some time as a goalkeeping coach for Inter.
