Inter dominate Empoli with goals coming from Eder and Candreva. Stefano Pioli spoke with INTER Channel after the match at the Meazza:
“We should improve the management of some situations and attack whenever there’s a chance. We have perhaps left too much space for Empoli. It’s also true that there are no perfect matches, but mistakes are better committed away from our area.”
There was the risk of losing concentration after the loss from Juve?
“Yes, but we have always worked very well – I was sure that the positive environment at Appiano would help. I was sure about tonight’s solutions. If the result does not reward you, but the performance is guaranteed if you work well during the week.”
Confirmed 3 man defense?
“I thought it was the right solution to address Empoli. It’s a solution in addition, we’ve already played with a 3 man defense against Fiorentina and Genoa. Flexible players are important. Every game is different, we will see from time to time. There are absences, even Kondogbia is disqualified, we will have to decide later.”
2-0 a perfect result?
“I’m happy for the energy from my side, it certainly is a good result.”
