Report – Inter Milan Manager Hands Nerazzurri Squad Two Days Off For Christmas | OneFootball

Simone Inzaghi has given his Inter Milan squad a two-day rest for Christmas after a 2-0 win against Como last night.

According to FCInterNews, Inzaghi has scheduled the return date for December 26.

Goals from Carlos Augusto and Marcus Thuram inspired the Nerazzurri to a comfortable triumph against the Serie A newcomers.

It was a fitting conclusion to their home fixtures for 2024.

However, there’s no room for celebration.

Indeed, Inzaghi’s charges will sign off for 2024 with an away game against Cagliari next weekend.

Simone Inzaghi Hands Inter Milan Team Two-Day Rest for Christmas

Preparations for the upcoming trip to Sardinia will commence on Thursday.

Until then, Inter players can briefly enjoy the holidays with their families and loved ones.

It’s the coach’s way of expressing his gratitude for his side’s incredible effort to recover ground on the top spot.

Yet, Inzaghi will expect his team to resume their domestic duties with the same focus and determination.

Monday’s victory against Como was Inter’s fourth in a row in Serie A.

However, they’re still three points off pacesetters Atalanta and one adrift of second-placed Napoli.

Therefore, a win against relegation-threatened Cagliari is imperative.

Inter cannot take Davide Nicola’s team lightly despite being considered warm favorites to emerge victorious from Sardinia.
