Inter Milan coach Inzaghi relieved overcoming Parma in Coppa

Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi was relieved with their extra-time Coppa Italia win against Parma.

Inter came from behind to win 2-1 on Tuesday night.

Inzaghi said: “We came up against a team that had prepared for this match for a long time and who looked very organized and hard to break down.

“We had to move the ball faster," the coach admitted, “and then we went behind to a wondergoal."

“We did well to not start getting stretched out between the lines and we remained focused and didn't lose our composure, that gives us hope."

Asked if he thinks that the team is still suffering the effects of their efforts against Napoli physically, Inzaghi responded: “Physical condition always needs improvement, and we're talking about an Inter who beat Napoli and who would've beaten Monza except for the incident we're all familiar with."

“And we won today," he continued, “with the better part of the team rotated.

“Now we need to use the rest of the week as well as we can, we hope to get some important players back fit and available."
