Simone Inzaghi, honeyed words for Yann Aurel Bisseck

It's a visibly satisfied Simone Inzaghi who appeared in the press room at the San Siro after his Inter team's success against Arsenal, 1-0, on the fourth day of the Champions League Phase. It's especially the defense, which has yet to concede a goal in Europe, that gets compliments from the coach from Piacenza.

"Since I have been coaching Inter, we are the team with the most matches without conceding goals in the Champions League, è a figure of great importance – he said. Today è was a night to remember because we won in front of fans who were able to cheer us on for the entire 90 minutes and beyond. It's been great to collect their applause".

Speaking of the individuals, Inzaghi reserved honeyed words for Yann Aurel Bisseck, who confirmed the solidity he had already shown against Young Boys, playing as he did on that occasion as a starter: "For me è a very strong player,” he said, “if he plays a little bit less è because there are other very strong defenders. Forò è one who has done his against Manchester City and Arsenal, he does not have to prove anything to me".

"Among other things, in the last few days, he had a little physical problem and played bandaged up – added Inzaghi, speaking again about the German defender -. Very good of him not to be conditioned and very good of the doctors and physiotherapists as well: at the end of the first half he was theè with the ice bag, but he told me he would not give up and è he was of his word".
