Inter Vice President Javier Zanetti spoke to the microphones of Sky Sport HD in the pre-match of Juventus-Inter.
Why can’t the match between Juventus and Inter be a normal one?
Because the history of these two clubs speaks very clearly. It’s a very heartfelt match because of the history that these two clubs have, and I think two great teams are facing each other.
What does the history increase inside? Anger, probably?
No, the knowledge that we can face a strong team, however, I think that just as well Inter has prepared this match in the best way and hopefully we can do well.
How does Inter get to this match?
They come to it with the enthusiasm of being able to have a good match, knowing that in front of them is a very strong team, however, I think there are the conditions to be positive.
At the end of the first leg match, Inter had an eight-point lead over Juventus. Today it chases, ten away. What is the reason for this change?
The lack of continuity. Unfortunately, until Christmas we were first in the standings, then, especially January penalized us a lot in terms of results. And now we have to chase a third place, which becomes crucial for us.
Did Thohir before departing give any reassurances about the future?
Yes, Thohir with us has always been very clear, sometimes we are surprised by so many headlines, because they do not correspond to the truth, however we know that it is part of the game. We have to focus, we as a society in making as few mistakes as possible and try to always stay close to the team so that it can make it on the field.
If you were asked Mancini for the national team bench after the European Championships?
Mancini was also very clear yesterday and said he wants to continue with us. The important thing is that we get to the third place, after that we will see.
