However, Nerazzurri wingback Matteo Darmian insisted that “we can’t give up.”

“Despite these last few losses, we still have a lot to play for.”

“But we have to stay united in the dressing room, and across the team. And look forward.”

“Now, there’s no point saying anything else.”

Then, Darmian admitted that “it’s a shame, because these have been very big losses.”

“But from the next match onwards, we’re facing a match that’s fascinating, but difficult.”

Inter face Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals this coming week.

“We’ll do everything to bring it home,” Darmian said of facing the Blaugranas.

And Darmian said that “We’ll be prepared, the way we always are.”

“Often, these matches prepare for themselves somewhat,” the 35-year-old said of coming up against Barcelona.

“It’s normal that we have to recover both physically and mentally,” Darmian added.

“But we’ll be prepared the way we always are. And we’ll go to Barcelona to put in a good performance.”
