From today's Gazetta Dello Sport:
"All the odds pointed to Inter fighting an uphill battle last night and that's exactly what happened. Their 3-0 defeat at the hand of Tottenham, which more or less means they are out of the Europa League, still came as a bad blow. A blow to morale, because it reeked of inferiority and impotence. A blow to the body, because chasing the other team for ninety minutes as they had the ball and moved at twice the speed, without ever managing to keep possession, takes it out of you. A blow to hopes for the future, because team that have a project and will be winners are made like Spurs and not like the present Inter team. Their play was convincing, the terraces were packed and the atmosphere warm, they had a superstar like Bale who was surrounded by many other good players: that's Tottenham, the Inter we saw in London was a rather unconvincing group held together by plasters."
"SUPERSPURS — Granted, today's Inter is full of problems, and they have still managed to deal with other teams, but this Tottenham is ready to take up its place alongside the best in Europe. Handanovic alone managed to keep the score from becoming embarassing. He saved well from Defoe and Lennon, who both deserved to score. Bale isn't one of those primadonnas that don't live up to expectations, the Icelander Sigurdsson and Dembelé are two forces of nature, Parker would be the undisputed leader in midfield if he played for Inter. At the back they only made a couple of mistakes (the second time Palacio was stopped by Friedel), due to lack of concentration more than any thing else. Villas Boas has already won this cup and it looks very much like he could do it again."
It's hard to argue with either the result or the obvious gulf in quality. It is a little tough to be smacked so sharply in the face with our numerous weaknesses. If anything, I think a result like this highlights how well we’ve covered for our deficiencies thus far this season. This is the first time I’ve felt we were genuinely out classed, which is kind of surprising considering it’s March.
Inter deservedly lose this game because Tottenham successfully exploited Inter's weaknesses better than Inter can hide them. It also didn't hurt that Tottenham has better players, are more physical, have less pressure on them and a deeper bench. In this case they had all the advantages and used them splendidly.
AVB, as some might remember, was declared incapable of coaching at the highest levels, and was too young, blah blah blah. Sound familiar? I don’t know, he seems to be doing a good job to me. This is a better club than I witnessed last time. It reminds me of a more European team, as opposed to an English team.
Inter deservedly lose away to the much more polished and refined London club in the first leg of their two game tie. The contrast of the two clubs was stark, as one looked about as in form as can be and the other incomplete.
