Inter, the team trained by Cristi Chivu, broke a black streak with a 2-0 away win against Pisa.
The Nerazzurri returned to Pisa on the road to victory, 2-0, and the smile also reappeared on the face of coach Cristi Chivu. Italian newspapers report that at one point, at the end of the press conference that followed the match, the fire alarm went off in the hall.
The alarm interrupted Chivu's answer to one last question, about his fears of losing the game, but the Romanian technician didn't mind at all and answered with humor: “Someone's smoking and it's not me. I'm really not sorryThen he got up and left the room, satisfied that he thus escaped the journalists' fire.
Cristi Chivu: “I hug Lautaro every morning”
He had previously commented on the team's progress and his alleged conflict with team captain Lautaro Martinez. “I was impressed by the team's willingness to react, the awareness that today is not an easy match against a Pisa that hadn't lost in a few games.
Lautaro? Rumors question him, not us. Changes must obviously help you, they must change things and bring something more. The coach sometimes has to deal with a lot of rumours. I hug Lauti every morning. Strikers live by goals, and he wants to be decisive. I'm happy for him and the team.
I know who I am and I know what I can offer. I can give something to this club. I have been here for many years and I am flattered by the opportunity this club has given me,” said Cristi Chivu, according to tuttomercatoweb.it.
Inter is in 3rd place in Serie A
After the victory in Pisa, outlined by the “double” of Lautaro Martinez, Inter ranks 3rd in Serie A, with 27 points. AC Milan is the leader, with one more point.
We have been fighting for many years for all competitions. People outside can talk all they want, but we have to focus on our job, to keep Inter as high as possible
