Inter Milan coach Conte: Godin has learned to change his game

Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte has heaped praise on Diego Godin ahead of their Europa League final against Sevilla.

Conte admits Godin had to transform his game following his arrival from Atletico Madrid.

The coach remarked: “He had to learn to defend while running forward, and to learn to defend with 50 yards of space behind him.

"He had the strength, professionalism and humility to make himself available and broaden his game in terms of playing style.

“So, credit to him. He put himself out there and took on the new challenge, and now he is seeing great results."
