Inzaghi Hails Frenkie de Jong as Barcelona’s Standout Player
Inter Milan manager Simeone Inzaghi has singled out Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong as the standout player in their Champions League semi-final clash on Tuesday.
The thrilling match, which ended 4-3 in favor of Inter after extra time, featured goals from Lautaro Martinez, Hakan Calhanoglu, Eric Garcia, Dani Olmo, Raphinha, and Francesco Acerbi. However, it was Davide Fratessi’s extra-time strike that secured Inter’s place in the final.
Inzaghi, speaking after the game, was full of praise for de Jong, who impressed him throughout both legs of the tie. Despite the attention on Barcelona’s young talent, Lamine Yamal, Inzaghi highlighted the Dutch midfielder’s exceptional performance.
“A lot was said about Yamal, but I saw another incredible player over these two matches who wasn’t available the last time we played them,” Inzaghi told Sky Sport Italia. “Frenkie de Jong impressed me just as much as Yamal. He’s brilliant at controlling the ball, his timing with passes is spot-on, and he’s just wonderful to watch.”
Inzaghi added that, while he wouldn’t trade any of his players, he found de Jong to be truly sensational over the two legs.
