Cristian Chivu has returned to the subject of the expectations surrounding every Inter match. The Nerazzurri coach does not accept that his team is considered obliged to win every time, while opponents are allowed a different margin for error.
“It is not fair that we have to win at all costs while the others do not: that is not right,” the coach said. His message comes ahead of the Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk, scheduled for Wednesday 21 October at 21:00 at San Siro.
