Atalanta forward Ruslan Malinovskyi calls for a reaction from his teammates and better quality ahead of their difficult challenge against Inter after their 2-1 defeat to Lecce in an interview. “In Lecce we conceded two goals very quickly, at the end of the first half we scored. We need to improve our football,” the Ukranian international started off while speaking with Sky Sport Italia.
As it stands within the league, both sides currently find themselves on level terms with a total of 27 points. With the World Cup set to take place in less than two weeks, both sides seek to enter the top-four before the league is put to a halt.
La Dea were stunned in the first half as they took two quickfire goals two minutes apart within half an hour of the match from Federico Di Francesco center-back Federico Baschirotto. Despite Colombian international Duvan Zapata getting himself back on the score sheet after being absent for a prolonged period of time due to injury, Gasperini’s men took a huge blow as they endured two losses in a row.
With a chance to seek redemption at the Gewiss Stadium Sunday afternoon, Malinovskyi sets all his sights on the Nerazzurri:
“Now Inter is immediately there, we will have to play much better. We will need to react to show that we are a good team. let’s prepare well and give everything “.
Do you feel you can stay high?
“The championship is still long, let’s see what happens. We have arrived at a moment in which we are physically well, we are all going faster.”
Do you have a goal in store for Inter?
“We hope we can do it.”
