We don't have any injured players, but Cuadrado. Good timing.

Arnautovic and Carlos Augusto?


Are they injured though?
46’: Carlos Augusto feels something in his calf and is taken off as a precaution. Arna may be injured. But we have Lautaro, Thuram and Alexis . Augusto may be ok.

Just tell the players at the start of the game that it's already the last 15 minutes and we are golden.

That graphic flashes during every game now - and apparently it flashes on the Italian broadcast as well, which was how I saw yesterday's game - and I just know it's going to hurt us one of these days. Shit, it nearly backfired immediately yesterday.

Stop with your superstition. If we concede a goal late then we probably deserved to concede, just how the game goes.

I will not put my logic to the side because the broadcasting keeps showing the same graphic.

Also, my post was a joke that references that. Was kinda the point.

We don’t have to win.

Atleti has to score.

They’re good at home. We’re also fantastic away.

They just lost to 18th place team. We beat the 2nd most in form team away without 5 of our starting players.

We should be serene without being over confident.

Also, I think Gal is trying to take the title of ‘most pessimistic FIF’er’ from Universe 😀

In the bag this game hands down, not sure of the scoreline but I see it low scoring, atleti will press and run out of gas and we'll pick it up around 30-35 mins bagging before half time.

Looking forward to the game, no first team injuries and the form is with us, let's take this game with caution but be confident.

Optimism does not come naturally to Inter fans eh?

If we are a successful team, the result is in the bag. If this team are pretenders we shit the bed and go home to Serie A title.

The way we played last season and so far seems to indicate a very happy squad, and team full of confidence and maturity. We will be going through, its games like this champions live for.

I am not worried at all.

yeah noticed the same, it was really funny. They are trying to jinx it tbh and it almost worked. :lol:

I doubt that Inzaghi goes to Wanda to park the bus, we are going there to win and I think it will happen.

I doubt as well, but we're going to enter the game more relaxed compared to first leg. We have convenience to sit back and observe, and eventually hit them back while they're vulnerable.

I also think Atletico Madrid won't push right away. It's going to be cautious play by both teams in the beginning. Maybe even entire first half, but we surely aren't going to sit back for entire match IMO.

Leaving early from work for this game. Excited, scared, optimistic - all at the same time.

It’s a good time to be an Interista!

I saw enough in the first leg to know that we will at least get a goal.

We've got this one!

it's just a shame we didn't score more goals in the first game

it's impossible to say how this game will turn out, I just know Atletico has shown they are a dirty team and they will try to get a penalty and/or injure an Inter player for sure
