Inter Milan midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wesley-Sneijder-c36799 aiming for the Scudetto and Coppa Italia – Serie A Update
Wesley Sneijder has refused to let a string of recent defeats put him down and has said he is not looking back. Sneijder, after Inter Milan's humiliating exit from the UEFA Champions League is still looking forward to secure the Coppa Italia and the Scudetto.
Recently talking to the media, the playmaker revealed the team’s intentions for the near future, “Now we are going forward. We want to win the Scudetto and the Coppa Italia. We believed in winning last night, but we knew that it would be difficult. We created
several chances but lacked a quick goal and when you don't score goals it's difficult.”
“I'd like to once again thank the fans for applauding us. They have always been with us. Now we have to play at our maximum for them in the League and the Coppa Italia. We have to forget about this elimination and concentrate on the objectives that remain.
We are looking forward,” he concluded.
Losing the Derby della Madonnina was a great setback for the Nerazzurri in the Serie A which was followed by the disappointing 5-2 defeat at the hands of the struggling Bundesliga outfit, Schalke 04, in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
Leonardo’s men went to Gelsenkirchen with little chance of making a difference to what had already been done, as the only way to win was with a 4-0 victory at least. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 president Massimo Moratti already reckoned it to be a ‘Mission Impossible’ and so
it was; Inter lost the second-leg as well. The Serpent exited the Champions League with a humiliating 7-3 defeat on aggregate.
Sneijder seems to be looking ahead to the remainder of the season. Inter still have a chance to make it up for the UCL loss in the Serie A by winning the Scudetto. Coppa Italia is another trophy in their range.
With six games left in the Italian top flight, the reigning champions can make a difference at the top of the table and make a clean run towards the end of the season. Inter face AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 in the semifinals of the Coppa Italia and they can manage a victory
over the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wolves-c40952 if they recover from the recent back-to-back defeats.
