Lazio coach Inzaghi pleased with Vitesse fight-back

Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi was relieved to overcome Vitesse Arnhem in their Europa League opener.

Lazio came back twice from a goal down to win 3-2 in Arnhem.

“I thought it was a decent performance and even the first half wasn't bad, but we should've made more of our chances," the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.

Vitesse are a good side and I was not happy when we got them in the draw, as they have pace and quality in attack. We conceded an avoidable goal on the first distraction."

Trailing 1-0 at the break, Inzaghi introduced Ciro Immobile and moved from 3-5-2 to four at the back.

“We made tactical adjustments at half-time and I am happy that we had the right reaction from the lads. It's the first time this season we had gone behind, so I'm glad to see how we handled it."
