Since winning the Champions League under Jose Mourinho in the summer of 2010, Inter milan have gradually fallen into decline, and even fallen into the embarrassment of not being able to participate in the Champions League for a long time. After Suning Group took over, Zhang Kangyang carried out a drastic reform of the club, and the Nerazzurri finally returned to the Champions League under the leadership of the four meritorious head coach Spalletti, but unfortunately it was always difficult to break out of the group stage.
After the world famous coach Conte came to Inter Milan to coach, although the overall strength of the Nerazzurri has improved significantly after a series of reinforcements, it is still stopped in the group stage in the Champions League, and the club's senior management feels very helpless about this, to know that if the team has no chance to enter the Champions League knockout rounds for a long time, not only will the club's income be seriously affected, but also the influence in European football may be difficult to be significantly improved.
What the outside world did not expect was that what Conte could not do actually made indigible to make little Inzaghi magically do it, Inter Milan reached the Champions League knockout stage as desired in the new season, and the club's top management expected in the Nerazzurri to lead the Nerazzurri to go as far as possible in the Champions League, but unfortunately Inter Milan's luck was not too good, and actually met the powerful Liverpool in the 1/8 final draw, and the outside world was not optimistic that Little Inzaghi could pass the test smoothly.
Liverpool's strength under Klopp's leadership has undergone a transformation, having won the Champions League and the league title, such an opponent is obviously not something that Inter Milan can compete with today, and more importantly, Liverpool's state this season is very hot. In the absence of core players such as Mane and Salah, Liverpool have clung to Manchester City in the league table and have successfully advanced to the League Cup and FA Cup.
Mane and Salah were equally stunning in the Africa Cup of Nations, helping Senegal and Egypt reach the final, with Mane scoring three goals and two assists, while Salah scored two goals and one assist. Mane and Salah, who have won the African Cup of Nations and runners-up respectively, are expected to be able to maintain their exciting competitive form when they return to Liverpool, which is not a good thing for Inzaghi Jr.
In addition to dealing with Liverpool, Inter Milan also have to face Roma and Napoli in the Coppa Italia and the league. With a 1-2 defeat to AC Milan in the 24th round of the league, the Nerazzurri's lead was further narrowed, so Inzaghi Jr. would never dare to take it lightly in the league, otherwise he risked missing the Serie A title, which is a result that the club's top brass definitely does not want to see.
The Coppa Italia is also an important goal of Inter's season, so Inzaghi Jr. will also do his best to prepare for the match with Roma, which means that before playing against Liverpool, the Nerazzurri will first undergo the test of Roma and Napoli, and the impact of physical function is inevitable. Perhaps in the eyes of the club, ensuring that the league title is the top priority, as for the Champions League against such a strong opponent as Liverpool, the use of staying is not much, can only hope for miracles, let us wait and see.
