&lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;On the eve of Inter’s crucial Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk on Matchday 5 in Group D, coach &lt;strong&gt;Simone Inzaghi&lt;/strong&gt; discussed the goalless draw in Kyiv earlier in the campaign and back-to-back 3-1 wins over Sheriff which leave Inter in second, two points behind Real Madrid, while the visitors sit bottom of the standings with a solitary point to their name. The clash with Shakhtar will kick off at 18:45 CET on Wednesday at San Siro.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;There’s been talk about the comeback against Napoli, but what would qualifying with a game to spare in the Champions League mean, especially considering the team hasn’t reached the last 16 in recent years?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“We produced a great performance on Sunday to beat a Napoli side that had set so many records. They had the best defence in Europe and we managed to put three past them. It was a display of great maturity and character. It’s all in our hands in the Champions League now. We’re up against a side that plays good football with a top coach and they made it hard for us when we last faced them. We’ll need to take the game seriously and be well organised.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;How’s the squad and what’s the latest injury news?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“Sunday’s game was very demanding, with problems ensuing. Nicolo Barella and Joaquin Correa asked to be substituted while they were playing well. Hakan Calhanoglu was on a yellow card at 3-1 and I decided to take him off. Edin Dzeko wasn’t fully fit and Martin Satriano is ineligible in the Champions League. Lautaro Martinez has also played a lot of football, while Alexis Sanchez and Stefan de Vrij are out. We hope all the injured players will be back at their best soon.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;Do you feel the pressure of possibly reaching the last 16 or do you see it as a source of motivation?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“Qualifying has been one of our targets since the start of the season. We’re in a good position. We know this is a key game, especially as our final game in Madrid will be tough. Shakhtar have quality and can always make it hard for us, but we’ll try to prepare for the game as well as we can.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;Does your Inter side play better against teams that shut up shop or that play a more open brand of football?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“I’m lucky enough to coach experienced players who’ve been playing at this level for many years. It doesn’t matter which team you’re facing. We’ve taken on teams that have sat back and others that have pressed high. I’ve known Roberto De Zerbi for many years and we’ve come up against each other many times. Shakhtar are a technical team with fantastic individuals. They’re a good footballing team.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;Does the fact that Shakhtar have to win at all costs change anything?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“I don’t think so. Shakhtar already have a defined style of play and I can see it being a typical European match. It’ll be a crucial game.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;How do you prepare for the game based on the meeting in Kyiv?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“Either side could’ve won that game. We carved out plenty of chances and Shakhtar had lots of possession. They’ll want to take the reins and we’ll try not to let them.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;Are you pleased that you’re leaving your mark on this Inter team more and more?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“There’s an ongoing development process and we’re on the right path. There’s still a long way to go and every coach has their own ideas. The atmosphere here is fantastic and it’s a wonderful club with a brilliant fan base. My staff and I try to get our ideas across to the team. We can take so much confidence from the Napoli game. We’d always played well in games against the top sides, but we lacked that ruthlessness. We finally won one of them on Sunday and that’s given us a big boost.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;Inter haven’t scored in three games against Shakhtar…&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“We created lots of chances in our last game against them. We needed to be a bit more decisive and to have more luck as well. You need to worry when strikers aren’t getting chances, but that’s not the situation for us.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;Could Stefano Sensi get into the team in the next few games?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;“De Vrij and Sanchez are out at the moment, but we hope to have them back as soon as possible. The other players are showing positive signs. They’ve all played a part, some more than others. Sensi is working hard and he’ll get a chance to contribute, just as his other team-mates will.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;em&gt;(Photo LaPresse)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.inter.it/en&#34;&gt;www.inter.it&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

On the eve of Inter’s crucial Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk on Matchday 5 in Group D, coach Simone Inzaghi discussed the goalless draw in Kyiv earlier in the campaign and back-to-back 3-1 wins over Sheriff which leave Inter in second, two points behind Real Madrid, while the visitors sit bottom of the standings with a solitary point to their name. The clash with Shakhtar will kick off at 18:45 CET on Wednesday at San Siro.

There’s been talk about the comeback against Napoli, but what would qualifying with a game to spare in the Champions League mean, especially considering the team hasn’t reached the last 16 in recent years? 
“We produced a great performance on Sunday to beat a Napoli side that had set so many records. They had the best defence in Europe and we managed to put three past them. It was a display of great maturity and character. It’s all in our hands in the Champions League now. We’re up against a side that plays good football with a top coach and they made it hard for us when we last faced them. We’ll need to take the game seriously and be well organised.”

How’s the squad and what’s the latest injury news? 
“Sunday’s game was very demanding, with problems ensuing. Nicolo Barella and Joaquin Correa asked to be substituted while they were playing well. Hakan Calhanoglu was on a yellow card at 3-1 and I decided to take him off. Edin Dzeko wasn’t fully fit and Martin Satriano is ineligible in the Champions League. Lautaro Martinez has also played a lot of football, while Alexis Sanchez and Stefan de Vrij are out. We hope all the injured players will be back at their best soon.”

Do you feel the pressure of possibly reaching the last 16 or do you see it as a source of motivation? 
“Qualifying has been one of our targets since the start of the season. We’re in a good position. We know this is a key game, especially as our final game in Madrid will be tough. Shakhtar have quality and can always make it hard for us, but we’ll try to prepare for the game as well as we can.”

“Either side could’ve won that game. We carved out plenty of chances and Shakhtar had lots of possession. They’ll want to take the reins and we’ll try not to let them.”

Are you pleased that you’re leaving your mark on this Inter team more and more? 
“There’s an ongoing development process and we’re on the right path. There’s still a long way to go and every coach has their own ideas. The atmosphere here is fantastic and it’s a wonderful club with a brilliant fan base. My staff and I try to get our ideas across to the team. We can take so much confidence from the Napoli game.
