Simone Inzaghi praised Alessandro Bastoni as “world-class” after Inter Milan's 2-0 win over Feyenoord in the Champions League Round of 16.
Goals from Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez gave Inter a solid advantage, while a penalty save by Timon Wellenreuther denied Feyenoord a chance to pull one back.
Inzaghi expressed satisfaction with his team's performance despite an injury crisis, with Bastoni playing as a left-sided wing-back and stepping up for the team.
Inzaghi emphasized the importance of squad rotation, with players like Hakan Calhanoglu and Henrikh Mkhitaryan on the bench for fresh legs.
He acknowledged Feyenoord's quality but said his team defended well and adapted after a shaky start. Inter now heads into the second leg at San Siro with a comfortable lead.
