We are now just a single day away from the second matchday of the Europa League. Simone Inzaghi, alongside Valon Berisha, were the main figures to speak in the press room of the Commerzbank Arena, Germany, to talk about the match between Eintracht Frankfurt vs Lazio.
Inzaghi: "A complicated challenge awaits us tomorrow; there will be numerous fans and everything is on the German club's side, even if we have many fans coming to the match. The derby must be quickly forgotten. The formation and the starting lineup is already in my head, but I have not yet told the players. We have an obligation to play tomorrow's match in the best way possible after a loss. The derby is now in the past, we did not lose it tactically with - more hunger and malice the match could have turned on our side. I make my choices based on the recovery of the boys from the last match and based on what I see in training, tomorrow we face the German Cup winner. We will play in the Europa League giving all that we have, we want to succeed. It also takes more respect and proper management for us and also for Milan, as we will be on the field immediately following this match on Sunday at 3:00 pm. We know very well what the Derby della Capitale means in Rome and all of Italy, we will have to be able to leave the match on Saturday behind us and pull out all of our energy into the next two matches. Eintracht is an organized team and is led by an excellent coach who makes his teams play better. They also have strong and quick attackers, as well as physical defenders."
Berisha: "I'm happy to be back, 100% match-fit. I'm available and if the coach will choose me to start, I will give everything for the good of the team. I'm getting better, I have been training with the group for the past two weeks, I miss the rhythm of a match. The injury period was long but I'm happy to be back, I always want to win, I want to help my companions, and I will follow the instructions of the coach. We can achieve our goals, last year, as an adversary I realized that RB Salzburg had won in a lucky way. The Serie A TIM is among the best leagues in the world, and I'm happy to be able to measure myself with this championship, we have to give 100%."
