Torino 2-2 Inter Milan – Chivu Snubs Referee Scandal Discussion: ‘They Pay Me To Coach’ & Reveals Why Dutch & Turkish Stars Were Rested
Torino 2-2 Inter Milan – Chivu Snubs Referee Scandal Discussion: ‘They Pay Me To Coach’ & Reveals Why Dutch & Turkish Stars Were Rested Cristian Chivu gave credit to Torino, accepted personal responsibility for the collapse from 2-0 up and firmly closed the door on any referee scandal discussion, insisting his only focus is on the three points that will deliver the 21st Scudetto as Inter were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw at the Olimpico Grande Torino. Inter looked comfortable with a two-goal lead before a collapse in the final stages handed Torino a draw that mathematically sealed their survival. Chivu was candid about what went wrong, and typically direct about everything else.
Speaking to Sky Sport, he opened with an honest assessment, with quotes via FCInterNews . “There is regret. We had the match in hand but we conceded to their final assault when they found more energy.
The first goal frightened us and the second followed. We tried to make it 3-2 but in certain matches you risk losing them. Credit to Torino, they never gave up and could even have gone ahead.
” On the referee scandal dominating headlines this week, Chivu refused to engage. “I talk about football, I am a coach and they pay me to prepare matches in the best possible way and transmit serenity and the right motivation. At 2-0 I did not do my job well and I take that responsibility.
But little changes. Three points remain and we want to close it as soon as possible. ” Torino 2-2 Inter – Chivu Reveals Calhanoglu & Dumfries Fitness Issues The revelation about his team selection came when asked why certain key players were not involved or started.
