ANSA - Soccer: Inter have to 'build on Munich win' says Inzaghi

Thuram and Frattesi on target in 2-1 victory at Bayern

Inter coach Simone Inzaghi said his men cannot rest on their laurels after beating Bayern Munich 2-1 in Germany in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday.
    Lautaro Martinez finished off a fine move for the opening goal in the first half and Davide Frattesi scored the winner in the closing stages, shortly after Thomas Mueller had equalized for Bayern, to hand the German giants their first home defeat in the Champions League since 2021.
    "We went toe to toe with Bayern, showing determination and courage," said Inzaghi, whose side are aiming for a treble as they are top of Serie A and in the semi-finals of the Italian Cup.
    "It's a top-level result that makes us happy.
    "Bayern's numbers are incredible, so we've achieved something important.

 

"However, we need to build on this performance in front of our fans in seven days' time.
    "I expected more pressing from them, but they came up against an Inter side who played well.
    "We scored two goals after building from the back and moving the ball well.
    "We never stopped believing we could win despite conceding an equaliser".
