Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has said that his team will need to suffer against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final.
He, however, insisted that the Italian side is capable of hurting PSG in Munich tonight.
Speaking during an interview with the press, Inzaghi shared that paying attention to details will go a long way towards deciding who edges the match eventually.
Admitting that PSG are a very dangerous team to face, especially in a one-off final, the Italian maintained that his players have what it takes to defeat the French champions.
According to him, Inter Milan players must step on the pitch with desire and determination to win the UCL trophy tonight, because they won’t have it easy against a team that has never won the competition.
He noted that after beating tough opposition like Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Arsenal and Manchester City, his boys cannot afford to falter at the final stage.
“We need to face Paris knowing there will be moments in which we’ll suffer, and other moments when we’ll have the ball and they’ll need to defend.
Details and moments are key. We need to go out there with desire and determination to win the game. PSG are a very strong side, but we will play to our strengths.
We have had a very tough run so far, facing [Manchester] City, Arsenal, Bayern and Barça, but we have made it this far and we don’t want to stop here,” he said.
Inzaghi further stated that his team definitely deserves to play in the final, stressing that the club’s first UCL game away at City made that fact clear right from the jump.
He concluded by saying that his players have the perfect opportunity to put a smile on the faces of Inter Milan fans, and he expects them to take it.
“With Inter it is always a big match, but when it’s a final, it’s different. We deserve to be here, from our first game away at City, but we are still one step short.
We know what an important game this is. Winning and losing makes all the difference in the world.
We have triumphed and despaired domestically in Serie A, so as players and myself as a coach, we have been through it all. But the job is to put a big smile on the faces of our fans,” he added.
