JAKARTA - Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi is relieved that his team qualified for the last 16 of the 2022/2023 Champions League. Disposing of new challenges in the hunt for the Big Kuping trophy, Inzaghi emphasized that his team is ready to face anyone.

Inter closed their trip in Group C of the Champions League with a 0-2 defeat to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, Wednesday, November 2 in the morning WIB. Despite losing, the Nerazzurri have been confirmed to be in second place and will have the opportunity to face the leading teams in the last 16.

To make it through the round of 16, Inter will first go through the draw phase to determine the opponent. In that phase they have bad potential because they will face tough opponents, including a meeting with Tottenham Hotspur who is managed by former Inter coach Antonio Conte.

However, that didn't make Inzaghi discouraged. He felt Inter trained well in Group C against Bayern and Barcelona. According to him, the experience against the two big European clubs could be quite a preparation for the last 16.

"We are fighting hard to qualify and will see what happens in February. To enjoy the tournament, there is no fear of anyone (against it). But for now we have to focus on Serie A," Inzaghi explained as quoted by Football Italia, Wednesday, November 2.

Regarding the unsatisfactory result that Inter picked at home to opponents this morning, Inzaghi was heartened to admit that Munich was a strong and worthy team to win. But Inter also called him not losing without a fight.

Bayern are a team of extraordinary quality, but Inter have a good initial approach. We have chances of Lautaro and penalties," he said.

"So if we take the lead, no one can complain. But we lost to quality opponents," concluded Inzaghi
