Josep Martinez:
We Can Neutralize Lamine Yamal with Double Pressure
Inter Milan’s goalkeeper, Josep Martinez, believes stopping Lamine Yamal is not impossible and that applying maximum pressure can take him out of the game.
Inter Milan secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Hellas Verona in the 35th matchday of Serie A, maintaining their three-point gap over Napoli. Simone Inzaghi’s squad remains hopeful of closing the gap in the final three weeks.
Josep Martinez, Inter’s goalkeeper, spoke to reporters after the win: “Barcelona’s idea is always to dominate, just like ours. But since the match will be at San Siro, the conditions won’t be the same. We will do everything to reach the final.”
What does having such a strong squad mean?
Today was a great opportunity for players who don’t play often, and we all had to respond—and we did. I’m especially happy for those who played today.
Is stopping Lamine Yamal impossible?
No, it’s not impossible, but he’s a strong player. We must mark him closely and apply double pressure to limit his movements because he’s a key player for Barcelona.
