Inter coach Simone Inzaghi said his
men cannot rest on their laurels after beating Bayern Munich 2-1
in Germany in the first leg of their Champions League
quarter-final on Tuesday.
Lautaro Martinez finished off a fine move for the opening goal
in the first half and Davide Frattesi scored the winner in the
closing stages, shortly after Thomas Mueller had equalized for
Bayern, to hand the German giants their first home defeat in the
Champions League since 2021.
"We went toe to toe with Bayern, showing determination and
courage," said Inzaghi, whose side are aiming for a treble as
they are top of Serie A and in the semi-finals of the Italian
Cup.
"It's a top-level result that makes us happy.
"Bayern's numbers are incredible, so we've achieved something
important. "However, we need to build on this performance in
front of our fans in seven days' time.
"I expected more pressing from them, but they came up against an
Inter side who played well.
"We scored two goals after building from the back and moving the
ball well.
"We never stopped believing we could win despite conceding an
equaliser".
