pioli

After a solid 3-0 victory against Pescara, Stefano Pioli spoke with Inter Channel: “I am very happy, excellent rhythm in the first half. In the second half we should have controlled the game better. We were supposed to win and we did, but we faced a difficult opponent.”

Were you looking for a strong start? “Actually, we prepare for this in every game. We wanted to put pressure immediately, to make it clear that the game was ours to win. The attitude was right, now we have to recharge for the games against Lazio and Juventus.”

And with that win you passed Lazio in the standings. “An important step. We have to catch strong opponents, all we can do is to continue to win and to put pressure on the teams in front of us.”

Inter is 4th now, have you returned to a starting point now? “We are not satisfied with the 4th place. Inter have to continue to work in order to reach the top three. We have momentum, we are doing well but so far we haven’t achieved anything. We know how much victories like this cost and there is still much work to do.”

A player like Eder who always delivers, does he represent the group? “Absolutely, everybody praises the players that play, but at the moment our secret is the work of every players and above all the players that don’t get to play that much. I have to compliment them, but I repeat we are only half-way.”
