Chivu lost in extensions the first “Derby d'Italia” as an Inter coach. The Romanian technician's team was led by 0-1 and 1-2, then returned and passed to the advantage, 3-2.
Only Juventus also turned the score, the 4-3 goal coming in extensions, from Adzic's foot. Inter left with 3 points in the standings and reached two failures in a row in the championship, after the last round had lost with Udinese, score 1-2.
Cristi Chivu, first reaction after Juventus – Inter 4-3
“We had an excellent benefit, we were led twice and we managed to return the result. We lacked a little understanding at certain times, especially in the last 10 minutes.
We have to look at the performance as a whole, we came here to play with personality and dictate the game, not thank you with a little, But we lacked a little clarity in the last 10 minutes, when we had to do something different.
I never look at individual performance. We had to manage the ball better before reaching Dimarco. Since the beginning of the match, when they were in difficulty, they sent the ball to the stands.
I take responsibility for the performance of the whole team, even when led. Hakan has done what he knows how to do, and we need everything he can do.
You have to be good in understanding the moment and when you can do certain things. The team worked hard to return the result: you can train and you can work on habits. We return home disappoint that we did not win the match, “Chivu told Dazn, quoted by Tutto Mercato.
