Luciano Spalletti felt Inter “simply didn’t show the difference in quality between the two teams” in their draw with Sassuolo.
It was a sluggish Nerazzurri performance and Samir Handanovic came to the rescue with crucial saves on Kevin-Prince Boateng and Jeremie Boga.
“It was a complicated match because Sassuolo played very well. At times we managed to win back the ball early, but we kept giving it away again too quickly,” the Coach told DAZN.

“We simply didn’t show the difference in quality between the two teams.”
Inter were particularly toothless in attack, where Mauro Icardi and Ivan Perisic made barely any impact.
“We were below par this evening in the individual performances. Mauro didn’t find much space because Sassuolo defended well, but he also didn’t move very much to create the space, because we did create a few chances. He was unlucky on a couple of occasions, slipping at the crucial moment.”
The match was played behind closed doors due to racist chanting from Inter fans, but they were allowed to invite 11,000 children from local schools to provide a unique atmosphere.
“You could hear these children shouting, the sound of kids enjoying any situation that was happening. They weren’t all Inter supporters, there were kids who like other teams too, but they were all enjoying the occasion.”
