Before the match against Luton, Pep returned to lavish praise on Inzaghi’s team.
Pep Guardiola continues to praise Inter. Despite defeating them in last year’s Champions League final, the Spanish coach holds a great regard for Inzaghi’s team, as he reiterated before tonight’s FA Cup match against Luton: “It won’t be an easy encounter,” he observed, “and nothing is guaranteed. Look at the quality of our opponents in England and in Europe. Look at Interโฆ” (City went to win this game 2-6 with Haaland scoring 5)
“Last year, before the Champions League final, some thought we were lucky to face them, and you saw the game that unfolded. We knew they were strong, and now everyone understands: Inter is flying in Italy and, unless something strange happens, will win the league because they win matches by three or four goals. In the Champions League, they defeated (in the first leg of the round of 16) an incredibly strong opponent like Atletico Madrid. They are strong.”
