Inter Milan GM Marotta: Champions League final reached thanks to Inzaghi

Inter Milan GM Beppe Marotta says reaching the Champions League final is down to coach Simone Inzaghi.

Inter meet Manchester City on Saturday in Istanbul.

Marotta said, “The main credit for this achievement goes to the coach who, despite the criticism and pressure that I for one put on him, he managed to make this a truly extraordinary season

“In football, the equation of whoever spends the most money therefore must win doesn't always work out. Manchester City deserved to reach this Final and are an economic powerhouse of the sport, but we want to defend our own corner in this sense and so I say that when their horns sound, we will ring our bells.

“That is the great thing about sport, that predictions can be overturned. We know who the big favourites are, but we want to make a good impression and know that dreams can turn into reality."
