KIEV – The eve of the Champions League at the Nerazzurri. Tomorrow evening (18.55) the Nerazzurri will face Shakhtar Donetsk in Kiev with whom they played – and won – the semi-final of the Europa League last August. Antonio Conte must immediately raise his head and not lull himself too much on the victory obtained in the championship against Genoa. The Ukrainians are back from the away win at Real Madrid and lead the group with three points.
“Lukaku and Lautaro? I am convinced that there is room for improvement. Inevitable before making comparisons at European level, I think it is very important to win something. How much you win in the end, winning in competitions leads you to carve out that place among the best. Romelu like Lautaro being young boys, they have a good path ahead of them and possibly try to win something important “
AUGUST RACE – “Compared to that race, no comparisons can be made because it was a race where we were perfect both in possession and in non-possession. It will be important to repeat such a race. Shakhtar is a well-organized team that we have to pay attention to, you don’t score three goals by chance at Real Madrid if you don’t have important values ”
INTER EUROPEAN – “I think Inter are regaining a European dimension, thanks also to the good path last year which brought us experience. We need to continue on the mentality of playing the game, of attacking, of defending high, sometimes we get more, others less but the mentality I want from the boys is this. We have to look at ourselves and do things in certain ways. I don’t want to see a passive team. Whether it will be decisive? Shakhtar won in Spain and this victory changed the standings, I expect a balanced group from start to finish and we will have to be good to get through the round “
JUDGMENT ON THE SHAKHTAR – “We have seen Shakhtar matches, as they will have seen ours. I dismiss the concept, Shakhtar is a reality of European football, they are good at finding strong players, I remember when I faced him in the Champions League with Juventus where he had strong players who did not know anyone at the time and they made their way. Congratulations to them, we have great respect but we will play the game with our weapons “
Lautaro’s words: “Forever at Inter? I work every day to improve to give my best for Inter and for the team, I am happy at Inter and I am happy, we work to win and to send Inter as high as possible. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow but today I am happy here at Inter, I thank the fans for all the affection and all the genes that work for Inter that are close to me. The anger of Genoa? I got angry with myself because I didn’t do the race I wanted, then the emotion influenced me, that’s how I was, it came out from inside, today I’m happy and ready for tomorrow “
