Inter came away from their match against Parma on Saturday with a 1-0 win, thanks to a goal from substitute Lautaro Martinez. The win was a welcome sign for a team who had struggled recently, and the relief was evident in the post-match comments from coach Luciano Spalletti. The coach commented to Sky Sport after the match:
"It's an important win, given that the Bologna loss was hard to get past. This win will fill us with enthusiasm and strength. Will this win get us unstuck? I've learned to be more cautious. You never know, often times a great game will be forgotten by the next one. Nainggolan made some moves that I have not seem from him in a while. Vecino and Brozovic played a great match. De Vrij and Skriniar were both like lions. Perisic reacted like a great champion about everything that was said and has played two high quality matches. Lautaro? He has a talon. He gathers the balls that come to him and makes them playable. Tonight we needed some balancing. I expected I would play him, but I didn't want to force him in. He ended up having a positive performance and showed he can play with Icardi. He even is similar to Mauro in his traits. Mauro needs to break free from the conversations that have surrounded him and have had a big impact on him. It should be dealt with as soon as possible."
