Antonio Conte: Ibrahimovic Has Difficulty Scoring Goals against Inter Milan

DBasia.news – Inter Milan coach, Antonio Conte, made sure Zlatan Ibrahimovic slit into his team’s goal. Ibra is the biggest threat that Milan have when they meet Inter.

Inter Milan finally won 3-0 against AC Milan in the 2020-2021 Serie A continued match, at the San Siro Stadium, Sunday (21/2).

Ibra was initially a threat to Inter. In this season alone, Ibra is the only Milan player who has managed to break into Inter’s goal. From two matches, the Swedish striker posted three goals.

Conte realized he needed to reduce Ibrahimovic’s sharpness. Conte asked his team to reduce mistakes.

“You will try to neutralize the threat by playing as a team. That will reduce errors,” explained Conte as reported by the Italian Football.

“Ibrahimovic is a top player who has done very well for Milan. He has scored against us this season. However, that does not mean he will score again,” added Conte.

Meanwhile, Conte does not see Inter’s elimination from European competition as an advantage. On the other hand, Milan have just featured in this midweek match against Red Star Belgrade in the knockout stages of the Europa League.

“We played every three days until today because we appeared in the semi-final of the Coppa Italia against Juventus. It took a lot of energy.”

“On paper, you might speak of an advantage. However, the only thing that matters is what happens on the pitch. You have to work harder when you don’t appear on Tuesday or Wednesday,” Conte said.
