Inter's coach, Simone Inzaghi, expressed disappointment over his team's performance against Milan after they lost the Supercoppa Italiana title. Inter aimed to secure their fourth consecutive trophy but faltered in the second half, allowing Tammy Abraham to score a decisive goal in the 93rd minute. This defeat marked the first time since 2010-2011 that Inter has lost back-to-back matches against their city rivals.Lautaro Martinez and Mehdi Taremi initially put Inter ahead, but they conceded shortly after their second goal. Inzaghi noted that this was when control began slipping away from them. "We must first of all congratulate Milan because they never gave up despite being two goals down," Inzaghi told Sport Mediaset.

Inzaghi lamented losing possession cheaply during a crucial moment at 2-1, which led to missed chances for a third goal. Maignan's impressive saves on Carlos Augusto and Dumfries prevented them from extending their lead. "Unfortunately, we then conceded for 2-2 and lost it," he added.The defeat was compounded by injuries to key players like Marcus Thuram, Benjamin Pavard, and Francesco Acerbi before the match. Hakan Calhanoglu also left the field injured just after thirty minutes. Inzaghi stressed the importance of having all players available due to their tight schedule.Despite these setbacks, Inzaghi remains hopeful about his team's resilience. He acknowledged past painful defeats but emphasized that the team has always managed to recover. With six games in 18 days ahead, he urged his squad to regroup quickly and focus on upcoming challenges.Inzaghi highlighted the need for defensive reinforcements as rotation options become crucial with frequent matches. He hopes injured defenders will return soon to bolster the squad's depth and maintain competitiveness across competitions.
