Inzaghi: We Need to Be More Effective Against Pachuca.. They Will Fight Despite Elimination
The head coach of the Saudi Al-Hilal team, Italian Simone Inzaghi, confirmed that his team needs to be more effective in facing the Mexican Pachuca, emphasizing that the opponent will not be easy despite losing the opportunity to qualify for the FIFA Club World Cup.
Inzaghi said during the press conference held today, Thursday: "We created many opportunities during the last two matches, but we need to exploit them better," praising his players' performance and their ability to deliver outstanding levels in the tournament.
The Italian coach added: "Pachuca will fight until the end despite losing hope of qualification, and they performed well in the last two matches despite their losses, so we need to stay focused and deal intelligently."
Inzaghi pointed out that the players of the Mexican team possess "high physical strength," which requires Al-Hilal to be physically and mentally prepared to respond to their strong style.
Al-Hilal is currently in third place in the group with two points after two draws against Real Madrid (1-1) and Salzburg (0-0), while Real Madrid leads the group with four points, followed by Salzburg with three, and Pachuca is in last place with no points, ahead of the scheduled match between the two teams early Friday.
