Inter Milan wingback Carlos Augusto believes Simone Inzaghi’s side showed their strength in a 4-0 thrashing of Red Star Belgrade.
During his post-match interview with Inter TV, as reported by FCInterNews, Augusto hailed the depth and cohesion of the Nerazzurri roster.
It’s a shame Carlos Augusto didn’t score in Inter’s thumping UEFA Champions League triumph on Tuesday evening.
He had a glorious chance to open his account for the 2024/25 campaign moments after Marko Arnautovic fired Inter 2-0 up.
Unfortunately, the former Monza ace lacked composure in the crucial moment, letting Omri Glazer thwart his close-range effort.
Augusto admitted the missed opportunity pissed him off, but he reiterated the importance of putting three points on the board.
Like all other Inzaghi players, the 25-year-old has shown readiness to sacrifice himself for the greater good.
After all, it’s the only way to make results in such stiff competition on multiple fronts.
Carlos Augusto Insists Inter Milan Showed Strength in Their Fantastic Champions League Win Against Red Star
“It was a very important game, we made a lot of changes after Udine and we showed the strength of this group,” the Brazilian was adamant.
“We knew it would be a difficult game and that they would all play behind.
“We were good at taking advantage of chances and scoring four goals.”
Inter will face Torino at the weekend, looking to build momentum after last Saturday’s 3-2 victory at Udinese.
After dropping numerous points in the opening five Serie A rounds, the margin for error has grown tight.
Therefore, Augusto grasps the scale of the task awaiting the Nerazzurri on Saturday.
“he championship? There are teams that are doing well and one of these is Torino.
“The league is balanced, but we are Inter and we know that we must always enter the field to win.”
