Lautaro Martínez has been a stalwart in these matches, featuring 188 times, with Nicolò Barella close behind at 184 appearances. With the victory from the first leg, Inzaghi has now achieved more wins in the Champions League than any other Inter coach—22 in total—surpassing Roberto Mancini and Helenio Herrera. He is set to climb higher on the list of coaches by matches managed with the team. **Simone Inzaghi** *Image Credit: Getty Images* **16:12 - STADIUM PLANS AND OPTIMISM** There remains a buzz surrounding the plans for a new San Siro, with Corriere della Sera highlighting the potential complications if one of the clubs were to withdraw from the project. Should only one club continue, attention would turn to the choice of architect, as the design will proceed through a contest of ideas. **San Siro** *Image Credit: Getty Images* **15:51 - INTER'S THRIVING DEFENSE** In this season of the UEFA Champions League, Inter has conceded only one goal in eight matches, maintaining the best defense in the tournament. They also have an impressive clean sheet rate—59.5% under Inzaghi, representing the highest ever for a manager with 30 or more games coached for the same club in the competition’s history. **15:35 - JONK ON FEYENOORD'S MINDSET** Wim Jonk, the former Inter midfielder and current assistant coach of the Netherlands, addressed Feyenoord’s upcoming challenge against Inter in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Facing a team that has nothing to lose is always tricky, even if Inzaghi’s side and Van Persie's squad are on very different levels." **15:24 - INTER'S FIVE ON YELLOW CARDS** Attention is drawn to Indications of potential suspensions, as any yellow cards will reset before the semi-finals. Players at risk for Inter include Asllani, Barella, Dumfries, Pavard, and Bastoni. It will be fascinating to see if Inzaghi adapts his lineup considering the impending quarter-final ramifications. **15:10 - VAN PERSIE’S CHALLENGE** Feyenoord is keen to overturn their deficit, with Van Persie noting, "There’s little I can do if we’re not competitive in Italy." **15:00 - INTER WITHOUT ZIELINSKI** The biggest concern for Inter is Piotr Zielinski's injury, sidelining him until May. This will require Mkhitaryan to step up once again. There’s speculation about adapting Barella to the left, freeing Frattesi for the central role on the right, while Calhanoglu's central position may remain untouched despite past flexibility. **Piotr Zielinski** *Image Credit: Getty Images* **14:30 - ZANETTI DINING WITH SCOUTING TARGETS** In a noteworthy development on the transfer front, Javier Zanetti dined alongside Pablo Paz, father of talented Como midfielder Nico Paz, who has caught Inter’s attention. With Real Madrid retaining a buy-back clause, it’s worth keeping an eye on whether this friendship can yield beneficial outcomes for Inter. **14:15 - ACERBI ON TEAM SPIRIT** Defender Francesco Acerbi spoke in the MatchDay Programme for Inter-Feyenoord, emphasizing the importance of team cohesion: "This year’s squad has prompted an immediate chemistry with newcomers, and the existing bonds have only strengthened. The focus is on humility and expressing ourselves without fear. Football has taught me the value of teamwork and overcoming hardships together." **Francesco Acerbi during Inter vs Bologna, Serie A 2024-25** *Image Credit: Getty Images* **13:50 - THURAM’S INJURY UPDATE** Inzaghi addressed Marcus Thuram’s ongoing issues in the press conference: "It’s plain to see Thuram is battling through discomfort; he is not training as he normally would. Nevertheless, we cannot afford to overlook his contributions as we lack Correa on the Champions League roster." **Marcus Thuram celebrates after scoring against Feyenoord** *Image Credit: Getty Images* **13:20 - INTER'S QUARTER-FINAL RECORD** Historically, reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League has been a momentous task for Inter, with this opportunity marking the 14th such occasion in the club's storied history. Inzaghi would join an elite circle of coaches to achieve this two times, becoming the third behind Herrera and Mancini. **12:59 - VAN PERSIE'S CONFIDENCE** In the pre-match press gathering, Feyenoord's manager cautioned that his team would not show up defeated after the first leg: "Hope should never be dismissed, even if it appears slim. We've seen instances where teams have exceeded expectations. While we have had rest, our training continues diligently."
