Simone Inzaghi will not instruct Inter to sit back against AC Milan in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final tomorrow night, a report claims.
Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) write how the tie will resume with Inter having a two-goal lead from the first leg in their ‘home’ game, which is exactly the same situation as they experienced in the quarter-finals against Benfica.
For this reason, Inzaghi has a very clear strategy for sealing a spot in the final in Istanbul: to start again as if the two-legged match were 0-0, attacking from the opening minutes as in the first leg and looking for the first goal.
If the Nerazzurri were to get the opener again and go 3-0 up in the tie then it would effectively kill it off given Milan would have to score three times.
Reaching Champions League final would be an extraordinary achievement in a troubled season for Inzaghi, and it could even save his job as Inter head coach.
