UCL, SPALLETTI: "OUR REACTION WAS VITAL"

The Coach after the draw with Barcelona: "We put in a performance that was in line with what our fans expected of us"

<p><strong>MILAN</strong> - &quot;We wanted to put in a performance that the fans could appreciate and the team responded in the right way,&quot; said <strong>Luciano</strong> <strong>Spalletti</strong> after the 1-1 draw between Inter and Barcelona on Matchday 4 in Group B of the UEFA Champions League after Malcom and Mauro Icardi got on the scoresheet. &quot;We were brave and we performed in line with what the crowd wanted.&quot;&nbsp;</p> <p>&quot;It seemed as though the match was going to finish 0-0. Their goal came in an unexpected fashion but our reaction was vital. The boys didn&rsquo;t let up and the fact that Icardi went straight to get the ball after scoring the equaliser shows the character and mentality of this team.</p> <p>&quot;We struggled in the first half because we didn&rsquo;t manage to keep the ball and we committed too many errors that allowed them to have possession. At that point, they were stronger than us. It was a match full of great effort because they have amazing quality and force you to stay tight on the edge of the area. Then, when you win the ball back they&rsquo;re ready to jump on you straight away.</p> <p>&ldquo;Qualification is in our hands, but we can&rsquo;t let up in our remaining matches. We must go to London to get a result, convinced of our own abilities.&quot;</p>
