Gasperini:
Inter Have the Weapons to Eliminate Barcelona!
Gian Piero Gasperini, the head coach of Atalanta, believes Inter Milan have a better chance of reaching the UEFA Champions League final.
Atalanta is one of the few teams this season that has faced both Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League and Inter Milan in Serie A. These two teams are set to clash in the Champions League semifinals to determine one of the finalists in Munich.
This prompted journalists at the Inside the Sport event to ask Gasperini about his prediction for the Inter vs. Barcelona match.
Gasperini responded: “It will undoubtedly be a beautiful and spectacular match. We faced Barcelona in the Champions League and drew 2-2. However, the first leg will be held in Italy, so Barcelona will naturally have a tough task. Inter have all the necessary weapons to defeat Barcelona and advance to the Champions League final. I think their chances of progressing are higher.”
Who has a better chance of reaching the final—Inter in the Champions League or Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League?
In my opinion, Fiorentina has a better chance. They have already reached the final of this competition twice and naturally have an easier task compared to Inter, who must face Barcelona. I feel Fiorentina will win the Europa Conference League this year.
