Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram is pleased with the three points that the team took from their Serie A clash with Roma yesterday.
The Frenchman gave his thoughts to InterTV after the final whistle, via FCInterNews. Inter got a massive win in the context of their Serie A title push against Roma yesterday evening.
The Nerazzurri had to wait until the closing stages to finally get their goal. The Giallorossi held out well defensively, whilst Inter’s finishing was not quite up to par.
But eventually, it was striker Marcus Thuram who found the back of the net.
Midfielder Kristjan Asllani found wingback Federico Dimarco with a pinpoint long switch of play. And then, the Italian international played it into the area for Thuram.
And the 26-year-old former Borussia Monchenglabach striker made no mistake with his finish.
Combined with another clean sheet, this was enough to make sure that Inter finish this weekend at the top of the Serie A table.
Inter Striker Marcus Thuram Happy With Win Vs Roma
Striker Thuram gave his thoughts after the match.
“We knew that Roma are a team who play very defensively,” he said, “That we had to keep the ball moving. And that’s what we tried to do.”
And Thuram was also asked about whether he expected to have the kind of impact he has in his first few months at Inter.
The Frenchman has now scored five goals and assisted another five since joining the Nerazzurri on a free transfer.
Thuram said “No. But I just try to do my best. I try to work hard in training every day and help the team,” the 26-year-old continued.
“It’s always important to win at home in front of our fans,” Thuram went on.
“Today we got the three points, and I’m very happy with it.”
