It was clearly a very disappointed captain Javier Zanetti who spoke to Sky after the loss against Fiorentina: “There are no excuses. Fiorentina must be commended for doing a great match and we did not manage to do anything of what we are capable of. Fiorentina did well and put us in difficulty and now we have to turn the page immediately. Now we focus on advancing to the next round on Thursday and then we will think about the derby, which may be the game that becomes the turning point and I hope it will be so. Of course we still believe, although even we seek an explanation for this decline, the reason for all the losses after the victory at Juventus Stadium, we must try to break the trend. I think that we lack the balance that every team needs to move forward, we need to find continuity. The confidence is always there, but we are realistic and know that the table has been shortened, there are so many teams that are fighting with us to go to the Champions and we must start over immediately because there is no time to think. We were suffering in particular because of Fiorentina’s magnificent dribbling and we must try to be 11 when we attack as well as when we defend, but instead was Viola were often superior.”
When he was interviewed by Premium Calcio the captain praised a Fiorentina “that created problems for us. We seek no excuses, they played well and we couldn’t do anything.”
On the reasons why there wasn’t any reaction from Inter Zanetti said: “No, it didn’t happen, Fiorentina was first on the ball, it became difficult for us. Now we must get back on track immediately, maybe win the derby, it would be wonderful.”
Inter can no longer win on the road but is rather good at home where the team previously had difficulties: “We are two different teams, now we have to roll up our sleeves and await the time for revenge.”
