Barcelona is a Strong Offensive Team, and Yamal is a Terrifying Player
Inzaghi said: “Lamine Yamal is an exceptional talent, and it is very difficult to limit his danger. In fact, we are trying to prevent him from getting the ball, but it is almost impossible. He is a player who receives passes all the time, and all his teammates trust him. What caught my attention the most is his quick thinking; he always knows what he will do, and that makes him extremely dangerous.”
He added: “We will monitor him closely, and he will be under double surveillance during the match. We must be careful at every moment he is on the field.”
The Italian coach spoke about the importance of the match, saying: “We know the value of the game and the size of the challenge against a team like Barcelona. We need a great performance and high concentration throughout the match. The players are in a good mental state, training with focus and enthusiasm. We are experiencing the natural tension of such big matches.”
Inzaghi also addressed the physical condition of some of his players, especially Lautaro Martinez and Benjamin Pavard: “We will decide on their participation in cooperation with the medical staff. Pavard is feeling relatively better, while Lautaro has not trained since the last match against Barcelona. We will see if he is ready today; if he is not able to start the match, it will be difficult to rely on him as a substitute in the final minutes.”
He noted: “The Istanbul final is still in our memory; we had a great match and lost narrowly. It was a hard night to digest, but we learned a lot from it. Now we live in the present and think only about Barcelona.”
He confirmed: “Barcelona is a very offensive team and one of the best in the world technically. They have a great coach in Hans Flick, and the absence of Koundé is a loss for them, but they are a strong team whether Lewandowski is present or not.”
In conclusion, he said: “Did only Herrera lead Inter to two finals? That is a great motivation for me. We are working for moments like this and striving to reach the final again.”
