Simone Inzaghi says Inter Milan will take nothing for granted against Feyenoord

Inter Milan boss Simone Inzaghi insists there can be no sense of complacency when the Serie A leaders look to finish off Feyenoord and secure their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

The Nerazzurri won the first leg of their last-16 tie 2-0 in the Netherlands, giving them a strong position to defend at San Siro on Tuesday night.

Having seen his side come from behind to beat bottom side Monza 3-2 on Saturday night, Inzaghi knows Feyenoord – who knocked out AC Milan in the play-off round – will be ready to exploit any further lapses in concentration.

“We got a reminder on Saturday, that is true. Every game is difficult and we always find teams are well organised,” Inter boss Inzaghi told a press conference.

“Despite leading (this round-of-16 tie) by two (goals), we will not take things for granted and we will play with clarity.

“I am just focused on tomorrow because after the match against Monza we know that every challenge is complicated – especially in the Champions League.”

Inzaghi added: “Feyenoord will alternate, like they did in the first leg. There were moments when they were very aggressive, others when they waited in their half of the field.

“I think all teams in Europe do this. They will come to Milan to create difficulties for us.

“We will have to be good at playing a game which demands running, aggression, and determination.”

Inzaghi confirmed Yann Sommer will return, having been an unused substitute in the last two games after his recovery from a fractured thumb.

Midfielder Piotr Zielinski, though, is set for an extended spell on the sidelines after suffering a calf injury shortly after coming off the bench against Monza.
